Hi folks,

I have a problem with my install.

Part of my installation structure looks like the following:

\Shared
+--------\Programs
+--------\Com

I have some DLLs installed to the "Shared\Programs" folder, and some COM objects and DLLs installed to the "Shared\Com" folder.

However, I need to register some of the com objects. To register properly, they rely on some of the DLLs in the "Shared\Programs" folder.
What I need to do is to write the location of "Shared\Programs" to the Windows PATH environment variable, so that when the COM objects get registered, they can find the relevant DLLs.

How can I write this information to the PATH environment variable, and then force that to be re-read so that the COM objects register properly?

Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance.

Use an environment table value like
[~];[$Component]
[~] appends to the existing value and [$Component] name expands to where a component has been installed.
