SYMPTOMS
========
When you run a batch file from a *.PIF file on a Windows NT computer, the
environment variable "Windir" is not retained in the environment. Some
applications make use of this variable, and it is normally available in the
Windows NT environment. If it is not available, the application may fail.
RESOLUTION
==========
At the beginning of the batch file, place an entry that reads:
SET windir=%systemroot%
This restores the variable to the environment.
