My bad, I meant to write subst.exe - that's what I'm using. > But, how do I search for a unique filename or vol label? > How do I grab that Drive letter and place it into a variable? The filename thing is an old DOS trick, here it is, mind folded lines. Save the following as AUTORUN.BAT in your USB root folder, and run AUTORUN.BAT to set CMD/DOS variable RootDrv to the first (in reverse alphabetical order) drive that has \AUTORUN.BAT in it. @echo off rem Full path to this file without drive letter, example \AUTORUN.BAT set ThisFile=\AUTORUN.BAT rem Drive letter (and colon) we wish to use if possible, example z: rem WishDrv can be used to hardwire paths inside ini files, for example, rem total commander's. There is no guarantee that WishDrv will be rem available, so don't rely on it for critical functions. To be safe rem you should always assume that this tool environment is running off rem of a dynamically allocated drive letter RootDrv (initialized below). set WishDrv=v: rem Find out drive ThisFile is running from for %%v in (c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) do if exist %%v:%ThisFile% set RootDrv=%%v: if NOT "%RootDrv%"=="" goto LBL1 echo ERROR: can't find this file "%ThisFile%" on any drive. Quit. break :LBL1 rem Hopefully we can preempt drive WishDrv subst %WishDrv% %RootDrv%\ if exist %WishDrv%%ThisFile% set RootDrv=%WishDrv% echo ******************************************** echo * ROOT DRIVE SET TO %RootDrv% - WISH DRIVE WAS %WishDrv% * echo ******************************************** ------------------------ Yahoo!
