I have created an environment variable called "SUFFIX", and assigned it the value "PSI", using the following command sequence:
setenv<enter>SUFFIX<enter>PSI<enter>
It works fine for what I'm doing (a toolbar button macro using DIESEL in AutoCAD LT 2011), but now I want to set the variable SUFFIX to be empty: not a space, not anything at all. I can't figure out a keyboard input that will do that.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
P.S. Perhaps there is an AutoCAD variable that consists of a null string? If so, I could "$M=" to get that null value and place it in SUFFIX.
Not sure you can, you have to enter something. may I ask where you use this and how, and why you need a blank entry for it (wouldn't you just not use the macro)? there might be other options.
You can reset the variable using REGEDIT. See:

An excellent tip for occasional use but I would hesitate to recommend a frequent or a constant Windows Registry edit (based solely on the OP's intended use as noted above).
My 2cents worth.
