Right. Boot-start services do not get environment variables. Those aren't set until session manager runs, which (I believe) doesn't happen until login. You might consider creating an HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry entry to hold the path, then shove the proper value into the registry when the service is installed. Installation should happen during a session. Don't use HKEY_CURRENT_USER, because that doesn't exist until after login, either. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
