No no no : I was referring to environment /variables/, not
a particular instantiation thereof.  We both have (under
XP/PRO)

        HOMEDRIVE
        HOMEPATH

regardless of their particular instantation.

Here they are again in Server 2000 :

	HOMEDRIVE=C:
	HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\Chaa006

and in Server 2003

	HOMEDRIVE=C:
	HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\chaa006

If I can find some older or newer systems, I will repert again.
