So try this: An immediate CA after CostFinalize uses [!fileId] to get the short path, chops off the filename, and sets another property to just the directory, which you then use in an Environment element. Worth a shot. Otherwise, I don't see how to accomplish what you're trying to do. Other than to suggest fixing broken software that requires a short path.<g> -- sig://boB http://bobs.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
