Hi Sara I assume you mean when you do a dos command from universe over telnet. If that is the case every time you do the dos cammand it launches another DOS command execute, like launching another shell. I am not sure if there is a way of copying the variables from the base as you can with unix. I would run a bat that initialises those variables each time you launch dos, or the other hand consider unix services for windows, which gives unix people a more comfortable interface to windows.

To get a feel of what it will be like and to scope the learning we need to do we have set up a totally isolated W2K3 server (PDC) and have installed the personal version of UniVerse while we wait for an NT version from IBM. I added to the System Environment variables an extension to the PATH = c:\IBM\UV\BIN Problem - we do not get this in our telnet session. It is fine in a cmd session from the server but is missing from the telnet session. Can anyone explain how we add this on an NT platform. Universe was installed as Administrator and we have even tried using Administrator as the user in the telnet session but that did not show the extra path. Our personal user accounts are in the Admin group. I can add this within my session as PATH=%path%;c:\ibm\uv\bin and it works. However this is lost next time. I can see this is going to be an interesting learning curve for our DBAs (Oracle and UniVerse) who have UNIX skills but little exposure to NT apart from using a desktop. I will be on leave tomorrow (Friday) so I will see if I can get the digest sent to me at home.
