can you witch between local and stats server in spss from a batch file?

[spssstarter]

hi i would like to run a production job from a batch file, but the issue is some of syntax are run in local and some of syntax are run in stats.

I was wondering if it is possible to write some command in bat file to switch between the two servers?
(my stats server is called ukstats and my user name to login to that server is jennyy and password is abcd123).

many thanks in advance

Are you sure you want that info on a public resource???
You might want to change your pwd? ;-(

Do indeed change your password asap.  As for the question, search Help > Topics for command line

You will see that there are options for launching Statistics either locally or remotely in production mode, so you can have multiple job steps that run in the appropriate places.  Here is an extract from the topic 

Starting a Distributed Mode Session from a Command Line

stats -server inet:hostname:port -user username
-password password [datafilename]

• hostname:port. The name or IP address and port number of the server.
• username. If you need to specify a domain name, precede your user ID with the domain name and a backslash, as in: -user mydomain\myusername
• datafilename. Path specifications must be relative to the server. For Windows servers, you can use UNC paths. If the path or filename contain any spaces, you must enclose the entire data file specification in quotes or apostrophes
