Thank you all for the responses. BTW, I did RTFM and the pages said nothing explicitly between the two. Original Question ----------------- Kinda academic question but what is the difference between the 'set' and 'env' commands. Typing in either command (without parameters) spits out a bunch of environment variables. Is there a difference? Answer ------ "set" gives both environment and shell variables. "env" only gives environment variables, which are passed along to child processes. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rick von Richter Production Support Manager Voice: 858-831-2222 rickv@mwh.com Maintenance Warehouse/Home Depot Fax: 858-831-2221 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The box says: Win98, WinNT or BETTER.
