Hello,
As part of my appliction the user is able to create a folder structue on the network for storing all subsidiary information about a customer. I have been sked if I can set the folder permissions to read only. We currently use a utility and batch file to achieve this for other folders ,However the folder address is hardcoded and my address will not be known until the folders are created. My question is, is it possible to pass a variable from Access to a DOS Environmental Variable.

I am using Access 97.
