### Update from Chris @ SAS via comment “We did fix this issue for Enterprise Guide 4.2 maintenance 2 (4.22, released around Sept 2009) β so that EG will add a reference to the correct version of cscript. And of course, itβs correct in 4.3.” ###
Customer picked up an issue with not being able to schedule EG 4,2 projects successfully on Windows 64 bit operating systems.
SAS Support have posted a note:
http://support.sas.com/kb/35/654.html
Which outlines a workaround to manually create a .bat file to run the scheduled projects.
Shane,
The issue is that by default, a VBS file will “execute” using the 64-bit version of wscript or cscript on a 64-bit machine. The fix is to reference the 32-bit version of these tools, because EG is a 32-bit application.
(See http://blogs.sas.com/sasdummy/index.php?/archives/201-Should-you-care-about-64-bit-applications.html for more about that.)

As always thanks Chris for the update. Any chance you can update the support note? (not everybody reads my blog
