Either this is a spelling mistake by you as you typed in the filename for this message or you added the lines to a wrong file. If you are adding the lines to your "autoexic.bat" it won't have any effect because the OS won't recognise it (the OS reads AUTOEXEC.BAT). Could you please try adding the lines to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and see wether the DJGPP variable is defined.. If this fails please post or attach the contents of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and I'll try to help you. BTW a good way to find wether the DJGPP environment variable has been defined is to type 'SET' at the DOS prompt and press enter and see the output. Bye! Enjoy DJGPP! Kalum S.
