OK, so I have a USB portable hard drive and I want to basically move my
working WDSC 7.0.0.6 environment to it. Completely. WDSC software,
Code, my workspace, everything. I want to carry that portable hard
drive and be able to use WDSC on my daughter's PC, on my home PC, on a
buddy's laptop - I don't want to install WDSC all over the universe and
carry my workspace around and hope I can remember to take it back to work...

I originally thought I'd simply use the repository on the i to install a
second copy on my PC at work - with the software going to the portable
(H:) instead of the fixed (C:) drive. No go. Install Manager knew I
had a shared package group (already forgot the nomenclature) in
C:...\SDP70Shared and it didn't give me an option to put one on H:
Scratch that idea.

I guess I'll try to burn some CDs, take the lot home and try to install
against the H: drive there. That still might be a bust if Install
Manager and WDSC plop entries in the Windows Registry and ..\system32
and sprinkle DLLs about willy-nilly.

Before anyone asks, I got this wild idea from Eclipse. An Eclipse
install works just fine from a portable hard drive. No DLL litter, no
registry stuff, just click and go.
