Read envrionment variable 1

I am trying to locate the full path to a file that I wrote to %TEMP%.\ directory using a DOS batch file. How can I read this DOS environment variable from within a VB Program?

You can use Environ$("EnironmentVariableName&quot

e.g.

Code:

strPath = Environ$(&quot;Temp&quot;)

Thanks. I knew it was simple. Just didn't know the syntax.
