MS2000 and bat job

[boettger]

Hi:
I have an Oracle form that uses a host command to create and execute a bat job. It works fine on NT and Windows 98.
When I try to run the job on MS2000 it creates the bat job but doesn't execute it. I used the start command and the call command but it still doesn't execute. I put a shortcut on the desktop which works but I want it to execute automatically. Any ideas????

This job can run anytime during the day. Sometimes the
user skips a day so I can't schedule it. Any more ideas???
Thanks

I would add it to the user's logon script. the command will execute when the user logs in. however, if your batch executes a session where the session must stay open, I think you may just be stuck running it from the desktop icon.
