Thanks, Don, for the research.

And thanks for this link: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forum ... arpgeneral, I also get something from it.

It seems create a separate thread which just for starting a new cmd window and then quit immediately is a better solution.

But VB6 can not create muti thread, make things harder... Some VB cons.

I had a think about this issue, and came up with this if it is of interest, it's a pretty dirty workaround.

You would attach it to a button etc, and it launches the run dialog and starts a command prompt in your current path, where the new environment variables should be available.
