Hi Ladislav, due to the fact that several experienced people (like you) told me that it works fine w/o an environment variable, I decided to deinstall the whole REBOL stuff, including a clean-up of the registry and the environment vars. When I had the problems some time ago, I also had deleted the "working directory" in the properties of my REBOL desktop item. I now have restored it.
Having done all that, I reinstalled the regular REBOL/View release, which works fine and obviously loads the user.r (I've got a print of what-dir in it). After that I replaced the REBOL.EXE with the latest beta and voila that works fine as well and also loads user.r!!!! Now I'm baffled, since I really have tried everything except this total cleanup and reinstall. But'I'm very glad :-)) I'm sorry to have bothered you all with a problem that now seems not to exist :-( Thanks to all of you who pointed me in the right direction!!
