Hello guys,

I am trying to execute BCP from SQL Server 2000,but i am getting the foll error..

"xp_cmdshell failed to execute because current security context is not sysadmin and proxy acount is not setup correctly. For more information, refer to Book Online, search for topic related to xp_sqlagent_proxy_account."

But i have given permission to execute the bulk copy..

do i require any other permission as well?

can anyone please help me with this?
