I know there is a way to set an environment variable in the system
properties in NT (and it can be done in 95 & 98 too).  Is there a way to
 use that variable for workspaces?  If so, the user would just have to
specify the variable on their machine and the workspace would work.  A
slight pain, but it would work.
