I've seen a lot of references to script handling XP/W2K with %0 in a different manner.

FWIW, here's my approach:

code:
   SET CurDir=%0\..
  IF %0=="%~0" SET CurDir=%~0\..
  IF Not %0=="%~0" SET CurDir=%0\..
  CLS
  "%CurDir%\KIX412\KIX32.EXE" "%CurDir%\myscript.kix"
Discussion:

%0 in W2K and XP adds "" around the value of the batch file name, preventing the normal method of using %0\..\

In XP/W2K %~0 removes the quotes. Comparisons can determine the correct result, for all OSes.

Edited to show quotes around KIX and script calls. (This allows spaces in the %CurDir% variable to still work.)
