The processing is not hanging, but leaves the processes on the report machine up UNTIL I fully exit the script. At this point, I have provided a separate run for my Sys Admin who has run some dumps to provide to the vendor. So thanks for the thoughts. I really appreciate it.. I will let the list know what I find out, if and when I do... Wags ;)
