RE: [sqr-users] Call System Using command




The 1 usually indicates there is a syntax error.  Print out your command
string and try it from a command prompt to get more info.

Subject: [sqr-users] Call System Using command

Hello all,
I am trying to use call system to execute a .dat file located on a
different 
server than where the SQR's are located. Operating system on both the 
servers is Windows NT. I am initializing the variable named $script_file

with the actual fine name with complete path. Then I use the following
code 
to actually execute the .dat file:

let $command = getenv('COMSPEC')||' /c "' || $script_file || '"'
call system using $command #status WAIT
show 'Running command: ' $command ' Return Status: ' #status

My return status is 1. Can anyone help me understand this and solve this

problem? If this is not possible can any  one help me find another way
to 
execute the .dat file, every day at 7pm?

Thanks in advance,
Anu
