The WNetAddConnection3 function is similar to the WNetAddConnection2 function. The main difference is that WNetAddConnection3 has an additional parameter, a handle to a window that the provider of network resources can use as an owner window for dialog boxes. The WNetAddConnection2 function and the WNetAddConnection3 function supersede the WNetAddConnection function.
