Not every XP has %PROGRAMFILES% with a space in the directory name: C:\>echo %PROGRAMFILES% C:\Programme (this is a German XP) But, in general, you are right. As the user cannot be sure to what a specific environment variable will expand on each other's machines, one should be very careful with such advices in the public. Best regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
