ACAD 2004 %RoamableRootFolder%

[HottRodder]

I've installed AutoCAD 2004 using a network deployment install that was developed using all the defaults and have exported the default (unnamed profile) profile. Let me just say now before going any further that I am primarily a MicroStation (GASP) user. So if I use the wrong terminology I apologize in advance. After editing the default profile to include menus, blocks and other resources specific to a project I 'save as' to a filename identifiable with the project. when starting ACAD with the /p option pointing to this new profile some of the paths that utilize the variable %RoamableRootFolder% are now undefined. We do not use roaming profiles in this office. Is this the conflict? Where is this variable defined and how does AutoCAD use it? I've redfined HKCU\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2004\R16.0\ACAD-210:409\RoamableRootFolder in the registry to no avail. The new definition is not interpreted. I've also tried setting an environment variable redefining RoamableRootFolder to no avail. I can't seem to redefine this variable.
