Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.Step Error code: 80004005Step Error Help File:Step Error Help Context ID:5003044any clues would be helpful...i am thinking it has something to do with permissions???? |

When you run it manually, you are running it as you, in the context of your desktop session.When you run it as a scheduled task, it's running as the SQL Server Agent.If J: is a mapped drive for you, The SQL Server Agent account won't be able to see it. You should use UNC paths instead of mapped drives, and make sure that your SQL Server Agent has permissions to the network.Damian"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." - Emerson |
