28. 08M 02 01 The PATH Statement The PATH statement causes DOS to look in each of the directory paths listed there for any executable EXE COM or BAT file its instructed to carry out The syntax of the PATH statement is as follows PATH drive path drive path drive path Example PATH c c dos c windows We included spacing in the syntax statement to make it easier to see the elements that make up the path statement In actual use spaces are not allowed as the example demonstrates Semicolons separate drive path statements There are no spaces The complete drive path must be given for each directory you wish to include in the search The search is for files with EXE and COM extensions only An additional note if the executable you call in turn issues a call for a non executable file that is one without an exe or com extension then the PATH statement doesn t apply Instructions for using the executable must tell you either where to place needed non executable files or the executable itself must provide the means whereby the file can be found DOS will not look for these files You might think that inserting the directory path for the CM9740 executable file into the PATH statement would be a good thing to do but it will not work The CM9740 executable at one point needs to use a non executable file that always resides in the C 9740 direc tory H you invoked the CM9740 executable from any directory locat
