Hi there..

I have just one DVD-drive in the office, installed in one of the PCs.
How do I set it such that it becomes one of the shared network drives in the network?

What I mean is; so that if any user opens My Computer from their desktop, they can see all their network drives (which they can, now) AS WELL AS the DVD-drive?

Map the drive on all the other pc's in the office. First, of course, share the DVD Drive, then map the DVD drive on all the other pc's. Are you wanting to watch movies on all the pc's? I have never tried to map a dvd and then install the dvd software on the remote machine and see if it will run. Let me know if that works. I have done it with a cdrw.

good luck
