TT=>Well, with the versatility of 4DOS, my path statement only has 7 directorie
TT=>in it.  Maybe he should try that. :)


TT=>Long path entry's can substantially reduce performance of a DOS machine,
TT=>especially in a multitasking mode. Strive not for compression of the path,
TT=>but for consiceness, and you'll achieve a faster, more efficient system.
TT=>Remember, for each path presented, the system will search thru all the file
TT=>in each prior to executing the next.

You can try this too:
write batch files to change your paths for the stuff you're doing at the
time... ie.

Path= c:\; \dos; \apps
call it apps.bat and just run it and have your original path in another
.bat file?
Just a thought.
