Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club! Hi Lester, I learned that my path should always include: 1. The root directory of my boot drive which is always C: in all my computers. 2. The directory where all my DOS commands/utilities are stored. 3. The Arachne main directory if I am running Arachne. So that would be: path= c:\;c:dos;d:\arachne in my case. I may also sometimes add other directories if they contain programs/files that I want global access to. I don't know your computer setup so I can't really comment on your path.......except......... I am surprized that I don't see the Arachne main directory included. In fact, what you show below doesn't even look like your path. Your path is the line returned when you type PATH at a DOS prompt and press ENTER.
