Have you tried using the %CD% environment variable? I think it will populate with the directory you're running your 
script from.  Also, are you doing this in VBScript or batch scripting?

Subject: [Pauldotcom] Drive letter from volume name

Hi all,
    I'm writing a u3 script of sorts. I need to be able to know where to copy data to, but the drive letter will change 
depending on the box I stick it in. I want to do it all from one command line.Ive found a way as long as I know my 
drive's volume name (MyThumb ).  This seems to work:


WMIC logicaldisk list brief |findstr MyThumb > delme.txt && FOR /F "tokens=1*" %i IN ('type delme.txt') DO set ufddrive 
= %i\

But is there a cleaner way?


Thanks,
Adrian
