RE: [sqr-users] Call System Using command



Does the command work from a command prompt?  That's the first step.
Once you get it working from a comamnd prompt then calling it from sqr should 
be easy.

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
