Hi David, You mention two methods of setting an envvar: D> To the best of my knowledge it depends on how you set it. D> If you use powerpro to set the environment variable, D> only powerpro sees the variable.
D> If you set a variable with one program (bat file), and D> launch another program (ppro) I believe the variable D> gets passed to the child process (guessing this, not tested). This third method works reliably: Control Panel, System, Advanced, Environment Variables, System Variables, New ... Surprisingly, it is not even necessary to restart PowerPro. If you use that gui method to add a new envvar, such as pp for c:\pathto\powerpro it works immediately both inside and outside of PowerPro. That envvar is not necessary for commands inside PowerPro, which provides the pprofolder function, but it is useful when running commands from a command line such as Windows Run box or from a shortcut. %pp%\powerpro.exe anyPPcommand Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
