Using Environment Table to add [INSTALLDIR] into PATH.  It works great on NT/W2K/XP but not on win98.  The [INSTALLDIR] value is added into the autoexec.bat but when I typed the PATH command in DOS, it does not show it even I have rebooted the machine.

Anybody knows why??

Enclose it in quotes:
"[INSTALLDIR]"
On Windows 9X no blanks are allowed in the PATH, so long path names must be enclosed in quotes.
Note: don't do this for NT/2000/XP!
