okay then this is not what I need. Here's my flow.
1) I have an ftp script that runs and downloads files from a unix server to a windows server.
2) I then have processing that occurs via two scripts that are scheduled via a scheduling package my company uses.
3) The final step is an access database that I can't seem to get to work correctly when I try to run it scheduled (it just hangs, can't figure out why). however when I run it out of task scheduler it works fine.
so what I want to do is
1) create a file as the final step in one of the two scripts in #2
2) schedule the access database to run inside of a bat file which will kick off from task scheduler. inside that bat file would be a file check routine that does the following:
a) check to see if the file exists
b) wait some period of time
c) check to see if the file exists
and continue looping until the file does exist, then move on to the next step in the code. is this doable?
