Howdy,
If set correctly, I believe Allegro reads the env file in the install
directory, then the one defined by the user's HOME variable, then the
project. It is either another variable or a specific sub-directory
that Allegro looks for to read a design specific env. I cannot recall
specifics at the moment but I will get back with them in a day or two
if no one else does.
I seem to recall there is documentation for doing this somewhere;
either in the online help or SinkLink.
Cheers!
Drew

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] ?????: Re: Eror Updating Env File
Maybe someone can explain to all of us how does the env work…… I was
told that the default env is in the home directory,and after that, the
sytem looks for the env in documents and settings and after that in
the physical directory of the board ….. is this correct….. it does not
work fro me.. as I have many customers and I have to change the
settings every time I load the board……… can anyone help…….

Chandra,
Have you tried the suggestion from the first reply? => What is the
value for the HOME variable as reported by Allegro when you type "set"
(without the quotes) at the Allegro command line?
Cheers!

Chandra,
your %home% path is probably having some issue.
I agree.
I get to the system variable by right-clicking on My Computer on the
desktop; select Properties; click on the Advanced tab; then click the
Environment Variables button. The HOME variable should be in the User
variables section and I believe should look like this;
Variable Value
HOME D:\Project-PCB
Make sure that your env file is not adding to this variable. I am using
WinXP but the above should be near the same if not exact for W2K.
Cheers!
Drew

your %home% path is probably having some issue.
type "set" command inside your allegro console and see, see what is the
link ?
Looks like the allegro program cannot find the env file in the home path
location
