Running Win 2k SP4

This past weekend the Scheduled Tasks started hanging on my server. They
start when they are supposed to, but the status staus at 'running' and I know
they are not running because the data they move is not getting moved.

I have recreated several of the jobs and the same thing happens. If I run
the programs from Explorer, they run fine. The Job scheduler is using my
user name to run the jobs as I am when I run them from Explorer.

Is there a way I can turn on a logging feature to see what is happening?? I
there a way to actually see the program window when the Job Scheduler fires
off the app??

The programs are all Visual FoxPro and have been working fine for a long
while now. All the required files are in the folder where the EXEs live.

HELP!!!!

TIA,
Larry..
