Thanks. That makes a certain amount of sense as long as no Registry entries
get changed. (Any searches will follow the PATH environment variable to
whatever executables & libraries are needed.)

I noticed that in your example, you have GNAT on a drive labeled "D". (Usual
installation being to the "C" drive, naturally.) Is it necessary to have
them both on different drives? Or is this just a case of the way it happened
to end up in your environment?
