Re: [U2] Start Phantom in Another Account?
We simply start a job using the AT command scheduler (since you can access it from the command prompt): !at 20:00 cmd /c d:\unidata\progs\overnight.bat Where overnight.bat looks like: Top of OVERNIGHT.BAT 001: D: 002: CD \UNIDATA\DLV 003: UDT PHANTOM This may put a command window on the console but it runs as a phantom in UniData and creates _PH_ output (not tested on 7.1.22). Our LOGIN program (run from the LOGIN VOC) checks for @USER.TYPE = 1 (phantom) and @COMMAND (what is in the in the bat file) and responds accordingly.

Re: [U2] Start Phantom in Another Account?
My apologies for the confusion on the Windows issue. The issue I am facing is actually on AIX but I am trying to figure out the differences between Windows and AIX to try to come up with a more generic (i.e. not hardcoded to the OS) solution.

Re: [U2] Start Phantom in Another Account?
This seems clunky to me, but it seems to work. It should work in any UD, windows or *nix, it is a UD level solution. If I execute the paragraph while in account1; PA LOGTO account2 PHANTOM COUNT VOC LOGTO account1 I end up back in account1 and the process executed in account2.
