Partha,
I tried what you suggested and now it's telling me 'unable to open.....log'. Did you need to specify the full path name when issuing 'stata' command? I'm suspecting I might be at the wrong place (directory).

Commands as you have described work for me. However, if your mydofile has an
extension, e.g., mydofile.do, you'll need to add that to the file specification
stata - bb do mydofile.do &
The ampersand at the end will allow you to get back to your prompt (%) while
the Stata job is running.
Hope this helps.
