You need to combine your batch file with a Windows Script File or
Windows Host File script -- to allow you to define/associate a user
context to the execution of the batch file.

You can send your thanks to Microsoft, they have really clamped down of
the execution of 'unauthorized' functions.


I would recommend that you look into getting a distribution license for
a tool like IBEScript from IBExpert -- it does a great job for us in
running db scripts/trapping errors, etc...

A tool like it is a required item for any developer looking to deploy
FB/IB solutions.

P.S. Sorry Martijn, I wasn't sure if you had a similar tool... so I
didn't mention it.
