Help in setting up SDK in DOS sessions

Hello,

   I'm playing around with the Microsoft Windows SDK and the C
6.0 compiler under OS/2. I installed them as directed by their
installation manuals and now I'd like to set them up for use.

   I have a few questions:

   1) Should I set each of the tools in the C compiling system
      up to run in a separate DOS session (i.e. run PWB, CL
      and NMAKE separately)? Or, should I set up one DOS session
      that can run them all?

   2) If I set them up in separate DOS sessions, how do I specify
      the additional variables that must go into the environment,
      such as SET HELPFILES= for PWB, say. And, can I set these
      up on a per DOS session basis or do I have to edit AUTOEXEC.BAT
      and thus affect all DOS sessions under OS/2? What do I do
      if I run out of environment space - where is that set.

   I've looked in the OS/2 online help and can't seem to find the
answers to these questions, particularly with regard to having
unique AUTOEXEC.BAT settings for each DOS session.

   Any advice will be greatly appreciated,

   Mike Durket
