note Madams Here's my win95/winME "tweak" (i copy/pasted the whole subroutine that i munged). PS if you don't have multiple logins under win95/ME just change the <code>else{$Home=...</code> to $Home="C:/My Documents", on NT/2000 i'm not to sure...havn't messed with pTK on my NT box yet.<br><br> <code> sub TranslateFileName { local $_ = shift; unless (defined $Home) { unless ($^O eq 'MSWin32'){ $Home = $ENV{'HOME'} || ($ENV{'HOMEDRIVE'}.$ENV{'HOMEPATH'}); } else { $Home = "c:/windows/profiles/" . getlogin() . "/My Documents"; } $Home =~ s#\\#/#g; $Home .= '/' unless $Home =~ m#/$#; } s#~/#$Home#g; # warn $_; return $_; } </code> <br> _________________ <br>madams@scc.net <code> (__) (\/) /-------\/ / | 666 || * ||----|| </code> 72276 72287
