Hello,

 

I have this program to run a sas program, but instead it just opens the program after complaining that dat file "sysin" not found

 

The program is below

 

start/w F:\SASHome\SASEnterpriseGuide\5.1\SEGuide.exe –sysin C:\Users\matovua_sas\programs\rundailystatus.sas 

 

Thank you

The -SYSIN option only applies to the SAS.EXE program not to SEGUIDE.EXE.

To use SAS Enterprise Guide to run a batch SAS job, you have to use the automation API.  It's simple, but it will require a few lines of VBScript or PowerShell code.
