That's how I start powerpro from a usb key. In the root folder of the usb key I keep a bat file, say v:\startup.bat (the drive letter will change when you plug in the usb key), that includes these batch statements set PowerPro=v:\bin\Powerpro set path=%PowerPro%;%path% %PowerPro%\powerpro.exe (I oversimplified my bat file, in reality it runs powerpro using ppbang.exe and before that it changes ppbang.ini on the usb key, but that's not essential). Whereas on my desktop pc I simply set the PowerPro variable using the standard windows gui method. Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
