convenient to permanently set the variable. In order to permanently set the variable in Windows NT, complete the following steps:

Step a. Click the Start push button and select Settings->Control Panel. Double-click on the System icon. When the System Properties window appears, select the Environment tab.

Step b. Type appcllu in the Variable ®eld, and type your local LU name („11…) in the Value ®eld.

Step c. Click Set to accept the changes then click OK to exit the System Properties window.

The environment variable will now remain set for future sessions.
