The "autoexec.bat" file is very good thing,
it is useful to remember about it sometimes.

You can have the same result, if you'll do the following:

a) Add into autoexec.bat these lines:

rem -- autoexec.bat
PATH=%PATH%;E:\EUPHORIA\BIN
SET EUDIR=E:\EUPHORIA
SET EUINC=E:\EU\WIN32LIB
rem -- end of autoexec.bat

or create it, if there is no autoexec.bat at all on your box.
Look for it in the root directory of C: drive.

See, my PATH is without SET. It is not a typo, it works.

b) RESTART MACHINE, it doesn't work without restarting of machine.
BTW, sorry Brian, I need to restart the XP machine here to get the
*new* autoexec.bat working.

   I just forgot about PATH line in my first post on this thread,
   sorry, many thanks for the info about not working my solution.
   Maybe, that my "forgot" was the main reason of your "forget"? smile
   Sorry again.

   MS simple old good .bat programming is not as simple as EUPHORIA
   programming, it seems to be.   blink
