(waiting for George to slap me for not trying harder with WSH)

This works:

Clear
iOld =  Set("MemoWidth")
Set Memowidth To 4096
oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oSysEnv = oShell.Environment("SYSTEM")
? oSysEnv.Item("Temp")
? oSysEnv.Item("Tmp")
? oSysEnv.Item("Path")
Set Memowidth To (iOld)
*For Each Thing in oSysEnv
*	? Thing
*Next

On the systems I am working with, there are user temp settings in "c:\documents and settings" but the OS temp folder is "z:\" (a RAMDisk), and I wanted to use the system one for all my out-of-process objects. Running the above code gives me "z:\" and not something user-centric.

Thanks!




>>>The user Temp folder is the Windows Temp folder for all intents and purposes, although the content of the system process' TEMP environment variable may be different than the TEMP variable in the current user context. You can always fall back on the GetTempPath() API call:
