	I have in the past, tried to resolve this.  There seems to
be a case of Catch-22.  You may only add so much to the environment
while a program is loaded.  After that point you must add to that
environment from the command line.  The reason you can not do this
from a batch file is, the batch file is loaded at that time.  This
also goes if you have a bunch of transient device drivers loaded.
For instance, if I have the GSS*CGI drivers loaded on my AT I can
not add to my environment space even from the command line.  If
I unload my drivers I may then add to my environment space then
reinstall the device drivers.
	In short, you can't get there from here.

PS: If you find you can, let me know! I want to do it to!
