Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

You can do this by using VBScript in a logonscript; hereafter an example:

<pre>Dim CurrPath
Dim NewPath
Set WshShell = CreateObject(“WScript.Shell”)
Set WshSystemEnv = WshShell.Environment(“SYSTEM”)
CurrPath = WshSystemEnv(“PATH”)
NewPath = CurrPath & “;c:\mydir;” ‘ set the “;c:\mydir;” to your own needs
<b>WshSystemEnv(”PATH”) = NewPath</b>
</pre>

    I can't seem to grasp what you are trying to do. Do you want to create a mapped drive to a share on the server when the users login?

    Alessandro, that script does not actually set the new path. I think this is missing: WshSystemEnv("PATH") = NewPath I also think this will cause ";c:mydir;" to be added each time the user logs on (i.e. ... ;c:mydir;c:mydir;c:mydir;c:mydir) How would you deal with this ? maybe some logoff script ? ---------------------------- Bluesoft, are you going to put your program executables in that path, so users can run them from there ? , or what you need to do is make your programs save their data to that path ?
