There seems to be a case of Catch-22. You may only add so much to the environment while a program is loaded. After that point you must add to that environment from the command line. The reason you can not do this from a batch file is, the batch file is loaded at that time. This also goes if you have a bunch of transient device drivers loaded. For instance, if I have the GSS*CGI drivers loaded on my AT I can not add to my environment space even from the command line. If I unload my drivers I may then add to my environment space then reinstall the device drivers. In short, you can't get there from here. Robert J. White PS: If you find you can, let me know!
