If you set the environment parameter PROCOMM in your AUTOEXEC.BAT to
	PROCOMM=C:/the/path/to/the/procomm/directory
PROCOMM will find its support files nomatter from which directory you
started PROCOMM.
You could also try to run a program like DPATH first; it will look for all
the support files in the given search path. I think you can find DPATH on 
most of the PC Bulletin Boards.
