I am trying to take the following environment variables from a DOS script and have VBScript write them to a workstation running W2k. I can find plenty of scripts for reading current settings but nothing on setting or adding to the current environment. Thanks for your help.

SET PATH="K:\APPS\FIIS\SQL32\DLL"
SET PATH="\\scc6\BFIAPPS\APPS\FIIS\DDDK"
SET SYBASE="\\scc6\BFIAPPS\APPS\FIIS\SQL32"
SET PATH="C:\orawin95\bin"

Here is one example:

Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set WshEnv = WshShell.Environment ("Volatile")
WshEnv ("SYBASE") = "\\scc6\BFIAPPS\APPS\FIIS\SQL32"

This will set the environment variable SYBASE for the user that will be avalible until it is cleared or the user logs off.

Hope this helps.
