Wrong way to do this; the system directory isn't necessarily there (e.g. NT uses the SYSTEM32 directory.) Best practice is to either use the Win32 API call GetSystemDir() - there's code for this in the FAQ under Win32 and Other APIs. You can also get the information from the Wscipt.Shell's SpecialFolders collection if you've got the Windows Scripting Host available.
