What is the error you get? Is it possible that you only have a single
license for Splus and cannot run two concurrent sessions? I'm doing the same
thing on a dual processor Linux machine with 5 licenses and it works fine.
This is Windows-specific, and really a Tech Support question. You need an
option on the command that runs Splus.exe, /MULTIPLEINSTANCES.
But I have no idea how Kim has `fired up the first batch job' and can
imagine many possibilities here.
Ask your Insightful technical support for detailed help.
