Is there any way of programmatically finding out if a mapped drive is currently in use? If I try to unmount the drive with net use, and the drive is being used, it will tell me that the drive is in use and prompt me to take further action.

I'd like to be able to unmap drive automatically if it's no longer being used. The system is a Windows XP.
