But once in the native environment, I don't know that we set a variable to point to C:\FDOS. I know we have a PATH, HELPPATH, ... but I don't think we have: SET DOS=C:\FDOS I'm trying to remember if MSDOS does this, but my MSDOS books are packed away. I think it did set a "DOS" environment variable, probably starting in MSDOS 5.0. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
