Thanks Erik! That little batch file is perfect.

One thing I noticed, however, was that the environment variable is 
actually called _CONDOR_SCRATCH_DIR. I don't know where the preceding 
underscore came from, but it should be trivial to change either the 
code or the documentation. (I'm using version 6.6.5 on Win2k, fyi) I 
figured this out by submitting a batch file that just ran the 'set' 
command to output the environment variables.
