I am trying to execute a batch file from the Execute Process DTS task. It runs fine, but everytime I log off Enterprise manager, stop MSSQLServer or reboot, the Execute Process task loses it! I have to open its properties and repoint it to the batch file in question every time (note the path was correct and so were the parameters before I opened the properties)! Others are complaining too but I cannot find a coherent reply to this problem.http://groups.google.ca/group/microsoft.public.sqlserver.dts/browse_thread/thread/8055bf3e729ad6d8/7f4ec56e80b8426c?lnk=st&q=dts+execute+process+batch&rnum=10&hl=en#7f4ec56e80b8426c |

OK I figured this out somewhat. Drive letter! My Execute Process task was trying to run the batch file on E: drive - E:\somepath\mybatch.bat. The moment I moved this to C:\somepath\mybatch.bat everything was all right! Does anyone know how I can use any drive I want to instead of the default C:\ drive? |
