I'm sitting here with another consultant. We have a pretty big piece of batch processing code that can be run from within a 7.6 form. It takes 1 minute to run, which the client is happy with.
However, we also want to call this exact piece of code in a scheduled task. He uses a batch file that calls 7.6.exe passing the program name to run. This program simply runs the code I mention above, followed by an EXIT & RETURN. We see 2 problems: 1. RBase does not exit; it hangs. If we manually close it, then it continues with the rest of the batch file. 2. The code itself takes about 10 times slower to go through from within the batch file than it does when run from the form. Has anyone any experience with running from a batch file? Karen
