Re:RE: NT Batch processes continue to run

One might check the SQL scripts in use. If there is an error or a missing 'exit' command good old NT will sit there forever waiting for someone to "hit anykey to continue" even though the process has no terminal. I recommend judicious and heavy use of the "whenever sqlerror exit" command.

Because NT is patently incapable of cleaning up after itself.
