set dos env's in clipper app??????

Been looking for a way to setup a dos enviorment variable from within my
apps. I would assigne a name to a dos set and have all my app check
there before asking for a login name and user password in each exe file
on the same work station.

The user leaves for a reason or an other can erase it with a batch file
or even from with in an app, and if the system crashes the dos set
erasses it self.

HELP SOME ONE ???????

Use need to set the parent environment, not the program's.
FUNCKY has _putenv(parent(), 'var=value').

If you have Funcky, there are a few environment functions under the "DOS
ENVIRONMENT" section that may serve your purpose.

I bought Funcky in Australia some time ago, registered and NEVER heard
another thing - no version upgrade advice, nothing. I guess they lost my
address.
BTW, I've never needed support either - it all works just fine with 5.2e.

The latest address I have is:
dLesko Customer Support
PO Box 3166
Jersey City, N.J. 07303-3166
Direct order line:
201.435.8410
Nothing on Internet or Compuserve at that time as far as I know. Perhaps
Yahoo will find?

Found what I was looking for. Ah what would we do with out the net and
all it users.

ftp://ftp.iag.net/pub/clipper/general/cwtools1.zip

This zip contains three or four assembler functions. The orignal source
was modified by ( Read it! ) to work with protected mode linking, but
simply remove the modifications and ....
A perfectly good function to write directly to dos all the varables you
need.
