I need to access the values of certain environmental variables. Would I be correct in assuming that the use of the WinAPI GetEnvironmentalVariable is the best / only way to do this please?
Many Thanks

CHARACTER (LEN=*) FUNCTION GETENV@(VARIABLE)
CHARACTER (LEN=*) VARIABLE
You will find this in FTN95.chm.
Many thanks Paul - I thought there might be something available more directly.

Many WinAPI functions are already in the FTN95 own library in Fortran-friendly simple form. But if someone would decipher all WinAPI and WinINET functions with the friendly Fortran definitions AND also add Fortran examples for all of them AND show exact results of the run AND add all that to the Help -- THAT would tremendously increase the use of Fortran itself because most people think that Fortran is only boring formulas. In reality with WinAPI very little what will be left appealing in other tech languages to scientists, engineers, postdocs and students who together are majority of all programmers.
