Thanks, everyone. Sorry that my original question wasn't very clear. Arkady somehow managed to get what I really meant. To clarify, the question should have been posted as:
which version of the following commands in Fdauto.bat is correct? version #1: SET DOSDIR=D:\FDOS SET NLSDIR=%DOSDIR%\NLS SET HELPPATH=%DOSDIR%\HELP SET PATH=%DOSDIR%\BIN SET TEMP=E:\TEMP SET TMP=E:\TEMP SET DIRCMD=/P /OG /A version #2: DOSDIR D:\FDOS NLSDIR %DOSDIR%\NLS HELPPATH %DOSDIR%\HELP PATH %DOSDIR%\BIN TEMP E:\TEMP TMP E:\TEMP DIRCMD /P /OG /A version #3: DOSDIR=D:\FDOS NLSDIR=%DOSDIR%\NLS HELPPATH=%DOSDIR%\HELP PATH=%DOSDIR%\BIN TEMP=E:\TEMP TMP=E:\TEMP DIRCMD=/P /OG /A And here is Arkady's answer: > "SET" isn't required only for PROMPT and PATH. Ok, and now, which syntax is correct: PATH %DOSDIR%\BIN or PATH=%DOSDIR%\BIN Lester ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
