environment variable name - numerics allowed?

[Tom Lister <To...@ABSL.COM>]

Hi
I'm having problems with an environment variable
Windows NT
Have define variable
Set PHX2=P:\workdir

I an trying to access it in ant using
<property environment="env"/>
<property name="phx2" value="${env.PHX2}"/>

but it is not recognising it
if I change everything to PHX2a, it seems to work.
Is there and issues with a number at then of a property or am I missing
something more obvious here?

:-)

Run ant with -debug flag and see how the value is being processed. It 
may be a case sensitivity issue.
