Hi ,
I don't find autoexec.bat file in xp. I want to set path to borland c++ compiler everytime I boot the system. Do I need to create an autoexec.bat file ? If so, will the xp identify itself and execute the autoexec.bat file everytime it boots up ? and where should I place this file ?

Thanks

path variable is no longer done in the autoexec.bat in NT+, do this instead:
Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Variables > highlight the system variable "Path", click edit then APPEND your path like ;C:\your\path\to\borland\bin\dir

btw: be careful not to delete the existing path and you need the ; between paths
