Further information
1.
The environment variable is deleted if it is assigned an empty
string.
2.
Variables created or modified with this procedure can be retrieved using the
getenv function and are inherited by processes started by
system
or
openpipe.
3.
The effect of this procedure is local to the running model (
i.e.
system calls like the C function
getenv will not work for
these variables). However, another module may access the environment
maintained by
mmsystem using the IMCI function
getenv (see Section
Published library functions).
