Hello Joe,

 DC>> Why can't a simple command in a BAT file like

 DC>> CD C:\xxx\xxx

 JS> Not trying to be a pain... but just break it into 2 lines
 JS> c:
 JS> cd \xxx\xxx

 JS> Does it have to be done in one line??

Maybe, try a CDD C:\xxx\xxx (Change Drive Directory)?

Also, PUSHD and POPD might solve some of the problems...

           Cheers ... Gerald
