mbouchard Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 I do not believe that you can change it in 2004 as MS sets this. One reason they set it to X was that in older versions it took the first available letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot change the Drive letter.To overcome any Drive Letter scripting issues use %SYSTEMDRIVE% in your scripts.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbouchard Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Which I use extensivly in my scripts but is actually nolonger needed with PE 2004 and above since they hard coded it to X, which I am very glad about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't like Hard Coded Values like that in my code. Call it a pet peeve.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes things a little easier.<G>Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
