Isn't this LD_LIBRARY_PATH in UNIX? There are two separate concepts in UNIX and one on NT. Maybe, there should be certain environment variables that are passed always, if you try to pass anyone, and unless you catually override them. If the <task> has no hope to work without this, then it sould be put there by the taks itself. Jose Alberto > Stefan >
