OSQL prompts for password

Hello,
I have a batch file setup for backing up an msde 2000 database but the only
way it will run is by inserting -Usa -Ppassword. I don't want to expose the
sa password and I would like to use windows authentication so I've included
the -E switch. However, it prompts for a password and no matter what I put
in it fails with invalid password and my user login name. The password that
I enter is correct and the server is setup with Windows Authentication. The
batch file is called from an application and I don't want the user to to
have to enter a password, I just want the process to run when started.
Here's How I'm calling the sql script.
OSQL -E -iTestBackup.sql
TIA
Vic
Problem Solved! The switch should be uppercase E and I had lower case which
means echo.
