cvs export not working

[Deepak Sable]

hi ,


I have a folder called testing in e drive inside temp

e:\temp\testing 

I also have my CVS set up at 

e:\cvs\repository 


and inside that i have a project called testing as 


e:\cvs\repository\testing

Now when i want to export  data from 

e:\cvs\repository\testing

    to 

e:\temp\testing 

using  export command on dos prompt as 

c:\cvs export  -D 11/02/03 -d e:\temp testing


 it gives me an error as below 


cvs export: No CVSROOT specified!  Please use the `-d' option
cvs [export aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.

I have even used the -d option in the above command then also it gives me the 
error ..

Thanks in advance
