Make sure you use the full path to the programs.  Such as
/u/appl/fp/dreport if needed
and in UNIX I remember you have to set an environmental variable to
setup the user.  Since I'm not giving you your exact syntax for that
anyway that's something to figure out.  Same for UNIX you can get rid
of all the info that displays to the screen fairly simply.  Have you
tried running the script from a cmd shell?
