set command and path variables

in doing my windows shell lab for school.. they had you set the PATH variable using the command
set PATH=c:\yourname\advanced;%PATH%
well, I did it twice by accident and now there's two of the same thing. how do I get rid of the second one? how come it (as well as others) doesnt show up in the environment and system variable list under my computer? just curious.

I had a nice long reply all typed out. I hit "Preview", and the site was down. Bye-bye post. The ONE time I don't copy my post to the clipboard before sending it away!

Are you squared away now, or do you still need help?

Anyway, the "easy" answer was to reboot (if you can), and re-enter the SET command. If you can't reboot, do an "echo %path%", copy the part of the path you WANT to the clipboard (right click), then do a "set path=" (to empty the path), then do a "set path=[clipboard]".
