I routinely use filename FTP access to MVS flat files to produce local SAS
files.   I would like to fully automate the process so that, for example, every
monday at 4:00 am, a job would run.  I'm sure this is common practice in many
settings but it is new to me.  I am unaware of any capability to accomplish this
in SAS outside of Warehouse Administrator and of course there is the "sleep"
function but this will not achieve the objective.

I would appreciate any guidance from the group on software products and
approaches.  I am using V7 on Windows95 and our LAN has both NT and Novell
servers.

TIA
