Or maybe some apps don't recognize the include?  I think that's happened to me a
few times with DOS Internet apps.  In that case, specifying a relative path name
instead of absolute path name won't save you.  Besides, what if PATH.CFG is on a
different drive letter?  If necessary, you could copy PATH.CFG to every 
directory where needed.
