How to Access Environment Variables in an MS-DOS Batch File !
"R.Wieser" wrote in message
l... Hello Hot-Text, http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Sea...iptomatic&ac=4 Als, that link lands me on an (Italean) "No results found for: ..." page ("Nessun risultato trovato per: Scriptomatic ") (not that I know Italean, but changing the "it-IT" bit to "en-US" did wonders) I try to get you a US-EN But all I can get was the Italean but the Help videos are in ENG. As for the suggestion "alt.msdos" I'm not so sure that will be helpful. ... I believe you are right on that one Although Win98se has quite a bit in common with DOS, the fact that Windows in multi-process means that the parent of a certain process can cease to exist, while the child keeps running. That means that there is no way to, as you can do in DOS, traverse backwards to a processes parents, grandparents and so on until you find the master-environment (the one not having a parent). Yes, been there, done that (traversing back environment-blocks in DOS as well as trying to discover what the parent was of a to-be-started (thru the shell) program). :-) DOS is a good environment for win-98 ISAM (pronounced "eye sam") stands for Indexed Sequential Access Method Info @ http://www.mixsoftware.com/product/db/intro1.htm the website is Dead for the Software but good for Info ISAM now refers to almost any way of indexing a file of data records http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISAM http://download.cnet.com/Easysoft-Da...-10392595.html Thanks for the suggestion though, Rudy Wieser How to Access Environment Variables in an MS-DOS Batch File http://support.microsoft.com/kb/121170 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable Have Fun |
