Sorry, no URL, but I once had the same problem. Solution: - Check if the User who is running the scheduler service (system account?) is allowed to read the batch file. - We tried to run a batch from a network drive - but the system account only has access to local drives. - Use 8.3 file-/directorynames. We had problems using "/Program Files/..." when we changed to "/progra~1/..." it worked fine for us.
Just my 2 cents (Euro - thats about 1.905 cents in Dollar) Kind regards Thomas Rupp Vorarlberger Illwerke AG -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Coats, Jack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 09.

I need to use DOS batch files to bring down and up an SQL database. I have the batch file, but it is returning a 1 as a return code and that is keeping the backups from occurring. ... TIA ... Jack
