- As Carl Lydick has pointed out, you haven't supplied nearly enough
- information, so all we can do is guess. If your .COM file is comprised of
- only the above two lines, then I would guess that the program is failing
- due to the fact that you have not SET DEFAULT to DUA1:[DATA.SWEEP] (or
- wherever it is you need to be. This is often the answer when someone says
- "it works fine when I run it interactively, but it fails when I try to
- SUBMIT it". Like I said, this is just a guess, which is all I can do
- based on the above information.
-
- Also, if the program does not require any input from the user, why are
- you redirecting SYS$INPUT?
-
- Also, maybe if you didn't direct your errors to the null device you might
- have some clue as to why it's not working.
