First off, I'm new to Kixtart so I appologize if this is a lame question.
I need to be able to add to every users Path statement on login but I'm unable to figure out a solution for both Win2k and Win9x.
Can you please help me with the code?

I appreciate the help but since I'm an idiot I cannot get neither SET, SETM or SETL to work in Win2k nor Win9x.
Can you please, please, PLEASE spell this out for me.
Here is the login script, drives map fine but I NEED to have a path statement added to H: because of the horrible way the Novell administrator set things up.
---------------------------------
SetConsole ("HIDE")
CLS
If InGroup ("MAHQ")
Use H: "\\xxxxx\@userid$"
EndIf
If InGroup ("Domain Admins")
Use I: "\\xxxxx\software"
EndIf
CLS
SETM "Path=H:\Lotus\Notes\"
; END OF GROUP MAPPINGS
Exit

Thank you for your help sealeopard, I'm sorry for being a pain but this probably comes alot easier to you then it does me. I shouldn't even be doing this crap but someone quit and now I'm stuck.
I did read the UDF on PathMod but since I have no coding background it was all greek to me. I also read the manual and searched for examples on this forum but found none with regard to Path statements.
I'll give your suggestions a try. thanks!

Well thanks to you Jens I've made a huge step forward... it's sort of working 
Code:
SET "PATH=%PATH%;H:\Lotus\Notes"
Works great for Win9x but for Win2k I have 2 problems...
Here's what it sets the path to and you'll probably see the 2 problems right off the bat:
\\xxxxx\NETLOGON;SystemRoot%\system32;H:\Lotus\Notes
- First off, it adds the Domain controller's Netlogon to the path (weird!)
- Second, it clips the first % from SystemRoot which could break alot of Windows stuff.
Is there a syntax issue here?

Code:
SET "PATH=%PATH%;H:\Lotus\Notes"
Worked fine on my XP machine...Are you sure this is all of the code you are using?

This is the entire login script... names changed to protect the innocent:
Code:
SetConsole ("HIDE")
CLS
If InGroup ("MAHQ")
Use H: "\\xxxxx\@userid$"
? "HQ Employee"
EndIf
If InGroup ("Domain Admins")
Use I: "\\xxxxx\software"
EndIf
CLS
SET "PATH=%PATH%;H:\Lotus\Notes"
; END OF GROUP MAPPINGS
Exit
