Sharing in VbNET

This code is for sharing folders or files in vb.net using the System.Management references.

I transcode it from C in:

   Public Sub QshareFolder(ByVal FolderPath As String, ByVal ShareName As String, ByVal Description As String)
        Try
            'Create a ManagementClass object

            Dim ManagementClass As New ManagementClass("Win32_Share")
            '   Create ManagementBaseObjects for in and out parameters

            Dim inParams As ManagementBaseObject = ManagementClass.GetMethodParameters("Create")
            Dim outParams As ManagementBaseObject
            ' Set the input parameters

            inParams("Description") = Description
            inParams("Name") = ShareName

            inParams("Path") = FolderPath

            inParams("Type") = 0 'Disk Drive

            outParams = ManagementClass.InvokeMethod("Create", inParams, Nothing)

            If outParams.Properties("ReturnValue").Value <> 0 Then
              'error if u cant do it
            End If

        Catch ex As Exception
            'error if u cant do it
        End Try
    End Sub
