Forgot to mention the target OS is Linux.

---------------------------------
Hi,

I have made a simple make file. I try to run it using
make PATH=/home/swbuild/test <target name>

In the make file for the target the first rule I give is cp $(PATH)/*.c .  
However doing that I get an error

cp /home/swbuild/test/*.c .
/bin/sh: line 1: cp: command not found
make: *** [<target name>] Error 127

I am not sure what could be wrong. Any help is greately appriciated.

Thanks,
Vishwas
