- I'm hoping someone could help me figure this out...
-
- I need to set an environment variable from within a windows
- program so that the new value replaces the original value
- set before windows was started. Once the new value is
- placed, it has to remain in effect even after the setting
- program terminates.
-
- I know this must be possible. Novell has a Windows version
- of Logon and "logon" has to read the logon script "set"
- commands. How is this done?
-
- Even if there are dos xx version specific structures, thats
- fine with me. Please respond via e-mail.
-
- Thanks.
