Solve : User Variable Question?

Answer»

I'm trying to add this user variable to a batch file and I'm having no luck.

The variable name is: CVSROOT
The variable value is: :pserver:[emailprotected]:/usr/local/cvsroot

I tried doing something like this:

set CVSROOT=:pserver:[emailprotected]:/usr/local/cvsroot

...but that didn't do the trick.

Any ideas?Your SET statement works fine on my machine. Have you any error messages? What OS are you dealing with? Have you run out of environment space?

Let us KNOW. I'm using Windows XP Pro. I don't THINK I've run out of environment space.

Shouldn't the outcome of my SET statement end up in here?:



Where it says, "User VARIABLES for Dave"?Setting variables THRU a batch file are only exist within the scope of the batch file session. For more permanent results, you need to GO thru the XP shell object or do it manually.
