SAS EG Project Scheduling help

[umar_milanzi]

Hi,

I am using SAS EG 5.1 on windows 7. i have project that has Autoexec and flow other process flows.

i want to schedule it to run automatically it around 7 am.  i used the windows task scheduler, it only runs the autoexec and it stops

how can i get it to run all the way

How did you schedule the project? Did you use "Schedule Project" from the Files menu in EG?

@Kurt_Bremser yes i used that

I asked because the behaviour you described is just like what happens when a project file is simply double-clicked.

Automatically running a project flow is done through a VB script that starts EG and tells it what to do.

do i have to create the vbs file? cant i do it with a script of just clicking?
