Internally, PowerPro is set up to deal with a command line consisting of a command file optionally followed by a space and then parameters. For icon display, it used to run into problems disentangling the command from the parameters when dealing with environment variables which introduce a space into the command file name which was not there before, eg %progfiles%\stuff\stuff.exe where progfiles was c:\program files I fixed this, but the fix indirectly introduced the problem you describe. The other fact is that the system's ExpandEnvironmentStrings command does not tell PowerPro whether there were any strings expanded when PowerPro asks it to check a command line. So when PowerPro finds a % in a command line, and calls that routine, it assumes that a new space could have been introduced, and sometimes gets confused about how to separate the command file from the parameters. In your case, the icon is disappearing because PowerPro is mistakenly taking the % as part of the command file name rather than realizing it is part of the parameters. There is no easy way for me to fix this without potentially breaking some other situation. I can make it a bit better by ensuring PowerPro only checks for environment strings if there are _two_ %s in a command lines, but you will still need one of the workarounds in this case. ------------------------ Yahoo!
