Re: Copying files for archive

     Here's my problem:  The job runs fine on my machine.  When I move it
     to the production NT server it runs, but doesn't work.  The batch file
     returns a 0 status, but the files don't get copied.  The NT server,
     that runs the job has all of the necessary permissions on the
     destination drive.  The code follows.  If anyone has any thoughts I
     would really appreciate them.  Thanks in advance,

     Hi,

     I previously wrote a similar batch/SQT program combination. It worked
     fine on my machine and in production at various locations until a
     recent change from Netware to NT. Now, as you describe, it works for
     me but not in production. My systems folks are guessing that NT is not
     'wait'ing in the process called by the batch file to finish. I am
     currently trying mods to the batch that will slow everything down.

     I had a similar problem of sometimes it works...or not...previously
     which was caused by a lack of environment for 'SET' variables. I will
     be also trying to create more environment space in hopes of solving
     this problem. I believe the answer will be a lack of resources caused
     by NT...

     Seems like when it rains it pours. Those are my thoughts FWIW. Please
     share any progress on this issue.

     Rick
