Hmm - but why is setx not working? The command would be :-
Setx AMPDATA "%USERPROFILE\local settings\application data\amp"
Which should create a key under HKCU\Environment
Ampdata REG_SZ c:\documents and settings\user\local settings\data\amp"
Mind, as Joe mentions that'll explicity define the key
You may want to add "Ampdata" as a REG_EXPAND_SZ value under the default
users HKCU\Environment instead.

Have you tried setting this variable in the registry using the reg_ex type?

Subject: [THIN] New user variable for all users
Hi
Im trying to set a new variable called "Ampdata" for all users for a new
application Im about to install. Userdata needs to point to
%userprofile%\local settings\application data\amp. I tried to use setx in
usrlogin.cmd but it didn't work. Since Im relying on %userprofile%, the
variable must run after the system variables are set. Can anyone suggest a
good way to set this variable so it runs for all users on login?
Thanks
Ang
