I've scheduled five imr's to run nightly through scheduler.I have a script attached to each one that copies the output to certain folders on the network. In addition to copying the report, I would like the script to close the current open catalog so other imr's that are attached to different catalogs can run without blowing up. Is there a way to close the catalog with script or by any other means? Thanks.

If you're using CognosScript there is a Catalog object which has a Close method. Why not use these?
 
I'm not sure we're on the same page. What I have attached to each scheduled IMR is a batch file that copies the output to specified locations on the network, but in addition to this, I would like to close the catalog after that IMR has completed. I may just be misunderstanding you. If so, please elaborate. Thanks
 
Oh, I thought your script was a Cognos script, ie written in VBA (Visual Basic). That's what I was suggesting, ie using CognosScript to control your reports.
