| Why isn't xp_cmdshell working - is it enabled and do you have permission?How about an operating system command step?==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

| Can you confirm xp_cmdshell is enabled . Check sp_configure.Confirm the account executing the SQL Server Agent job has permissions to execute the xp_cmdshellJack Vamvas--------------------http://www.sqlserver-dba.com |
