When I do set PATH=%PATH%;new path

this change it not permanent. Is there a way to change the system
path permanently in a batch ?

Thanks for your advice.

You have two choices:
setx.exe (Win2000 Resource Kit)
setenv.exe (ftp://barnyard.syr.edu/pub/vefatica/setenv.exe)

Both commands will set the path for all processes that you
start after running setx/setenv. They will not affect pre-existing
processes.
