I know that you are not the original poster, but, not having the original
message, I shall respond to the base via your handle.

You can effectivly double the available length of your path by putting the
command in your CONFIG.SYS rather than your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Your
autoexec.bat file will only allow 127 characters per statement, yet your
config.sys will allow up to 255.  Use the following syntax:

Set Path=C:\mypath

This should help out.
