Hi guys..

I created a DTS Package which executes successfully when I execute it from Enterprise Manager..But when I schedule it, it doesn't execute and it leaves an error message in the logfile saying that it can't find the source..stock.dbc which is a foxpro file.

I am doing it from Foxpro to SQL2K.

Any idea will be appreciated and I am also thinking about executing this from vb.net program.

How are you referenceing stock.dbc in the dts package? Is it with unc or mapped path?

The other issue may be permissions - because the job runs under the sql agent may not have access to the foxpro db.
 
I am referencing it thru the Mapped path..and Just now I learned that we have to follow UNC path.. And I am trying to schedule it now.. thanks for the effort.. and If you have any ideas about calling it from a VB.net application.. please let me know.. thanks
