Thank you Paul. It worked.

Don't delete anything
in the edit window but insert (maybe after the "c:\windows\system;") your path
for XyWrite. Or you could do it at the end, but XyWrite tends to prefer
it earlier on (if you primarily use XyWrite then the system looks through the
other path locations until if finds what it needs; however, on a fast system
this should not matter much). Remember that each of the foldernames must
be separated by a semicolon without spaces. When finished click on "OK"
until the System panel closes.

Subject: creating a path in xp
I am stumped as to how to create a path in windows xp for the dos
environment. I went to autoexec.nt which I understood was for the
purpose of creating the dos environment. created a path as I understood
how to do it in dos and nothing happened. After more reading I went to
control panel/system/advanced/environmental variables highlighted path when
the edit box appeared saw "% surrounding system root% and realized I was
seeing terms that had no meaning for me. would appreciate a reference to
where I can get more information on creating and editing a path for xp.
thanks
