Hello , I am trying to batch submit a SAS job using Windows NT(explorer) scheduler on NT server. I tested the batch file and it works with out errors. And I also successfully schedule SAS job on My NTWORKSTATION it works fine. But when it comes to schedule a SAS job on NT server the SAS job simply hangs. I take the following steps. 1) Created a batch file called "RUN.BAT" * In file I wrote everything in one line the following: "D:\Program Files\SAS\V8\sas.exe" -sysin "path to sas code\somecode.sas " -config "path to my config file\SASV8.CFG" -autoexec "path to my autoexec file\autoexec.sas" -log "path to my log file\somecode.log" -print "path to my list file \somecode.lst" 1) Using a explorer scheduler I selected my run.bat file and set it to run for a particular time 2) When the job executes it just hangs there 3) Nothing is written to SAS log 4) Yes I have tested the batch file it works fine along side with my SAS code

Does anybody has any Idea what I can do? Thanks.
