We have a user with the following question and is something I've never tried: I'm trying to use environment variables within environment variables. as in foo = c:\foo and bar = %foo%\bar and such. I can't seem to get the environemnt (this is the current users env BTW, not the system variables) to recursively expand these. Can that only be done w/ the system environment? Thanks for any help.
