Guest Tmuldoon Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 Hello, I have an existing path: c:\>PATH=C:\Program Files\HP\NCU;C:\Program Files\Support Tools\; I want to add F:\bea\jdk141_05\bin> to it. If I just say Path=F:\bea\jdk141_05\bin; it will overwrite all the other path info. How do I get it just to add to the end, and only for this session. After the reboot, i do not need it again. Thanks, Tmuld.

If you happen to be in the F:\bea\jdk141_05\bin folder then you can type this with very little effort and one hundred procent accuracy: set path=%path%;%cd%
