exist file ("C:\Program\SAS.exe"  )?
exist file ("C:\Program\SASv8.cfg")?
probably knot, right?!

you will have to set up a batch file to execute a program
which is not in the same directory as your SAS.exe

all this is on one line in file
- - - aExecSAS.bat - - -
"C:\Program Files\SAS\SAS System\9.0\sas.exe"
-SASinitialFolder u:\dls\odOSCAR\Scores\pgm
-sysin read1ship
-nosplash
- - - end aExecSAS.bat - - -

the directory u:\dls\odOSCAR\Scores\pgm
contains the file read1ship.sas
