I have tried all of the offered suggestions: Start ?b running without a call to cmd \batchfilename\ extended this to cover the file paths in the batch file
none of these result in file copying when started with LEP. HOWEVER the batch file contains a redirect of stderr to a disk file, when run though LEP the error file is created. The error file is empty... but it is created. SO.. LEP is actually executing the batch file, just not doing anything. any more ideas??
