| You can use the xp_cmdshell system procedure to execute commands and EXE files, but beware: you can't run a program that requires user intervention (Word, Excel, or a Java app with a GUI). Also be aware that xp_cmdshell runs synchronously, so if the called app hangs, your SQL Server will also hang.More detail on xp_cmdshell is in Books Online. |
