This was done in the win 9x family by editing autoexec.bat and putting it into the path= statement. Eg. Path=C:\;c:\windows;c:\Program Files\Powerpro; And it puts all programs in those folders into the "search these paths to execute a relatively-named .exe file" Who says it wasn't worth while starting my computer history with win 3.1 ;) David Troesch | Atlanta, GA | ICQ# 2333123 America: Land of the free, home of the mega-corps. http://tinyurl.com/4weom Funstuff: Real Cowboys don't line dance.
