1) Is getenv() case-sensative? Meaning is getenv("EUDIR") the same as getenv("eudir")? 2) Everybody that has Windows 95+, when you type "set" at a DOS-prompt, do you have this line shown: windir=DRIVE:\WINDOWS_DIRECTORY ? I want to know if that is default on all systems or if it depends on what Windows version you use.

Check for both. windir and winbootdir. I recently read from a very old PC Magazine that this is default. They even supplied a fancy batch file that detects if windows is currently running. :) > Mike Hurley > Lucius L.

My win95 gives me: windir=DRIVE:\WINDOWS I think the folder display would use a tree-view control.

No, i get the absolute path. And it's not called "windir". Knowing MS, it's different on every puter x every upgrade. Kat
