System Environment Variable "path" problem

DotNetJunkies User

I developed a Windows Service that uses the Oracle Client software.
When I dump the "path" statement in the Service program it is not the same as the System Administrative screen path. The Service path is not reflecting the Oracle Directory.

What to do?

Try one of the following:
1. Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("Path")

2. If you know the Oracle Directory
IO.Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(Oraclepath)

Hope that helps,
