Scheduled Task failing in Server 2003

Hi

I've created a task that runs a batch file to copy 3 files from a folder on the local c:\

1 file is copied to another folder on the C:\.
1 file is copied to a folder on a mapped drive.
1 file is copied to another folder on the same mapped drive.

If I run the batch file manually it runs fine, and copies all the files, to all the required locations.

However, if I then run the Scheduled Task, only the local file copy works and I get a 0x1 error in the scheduled task.  This happens whether the task is run "on demand" or is set to run at a certain time.

The user that has mapped the drive, created the batch file and scheduled task and is set to run the job is a member of the local admin group.

The user is able to create new files in each of the locations on the mapped drive so I don't think there is a permissions issue, but I could be wrong.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.  If I need to provide any more information then please let me know.

Thanks
Matthew
