DTS runs great... but not from the job list

I have a DTS package that updates a database from a text file and it works
great when I run it manually from the DTS designer. However, I right click
on it and set it up to run automatically and it will not run. I went to
view the history of the job messages and it appears that the following is
the error for this task:
Executed as user: MAHC_SQL2\SYSTEM. DTSRun: Loading... DTSRun:
Executing... DTSRun OnStart: DTSStep_DTSExecuteSQLTask_1 DTSRun
OnFinish: DTSStep_DTSExecuteSQLTask_1 DTSRun OnStart:
DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1 DTSRun OnError: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1,
Error = -2147467259 (80004005) Error string: Error opening datafile:
The network name cannot be found. Error source: Microsoft Data
Transformation Services Flat File Rowset Provider Help file:
DTSFFile.hlp Help context: 0 Error Detail Records: Error:

Data Transformation Services Flat File Rowset Provider Help file:
DTSFFile.hlp Help context: 0 DTSRun OnFinish:
DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1 DTSRun: Package execution complete. Process
Exit Code 1. The step failed.
Can anyone give me any clues as to what the problem could be?

Have a look at this KB that details the common reasons a scheduled DTS
package will fail

|||Hi Schoo,
Thanks for you post and I would love to show my gratidue for MVP Jasper
Smith's providing that great KB:Q269074
From your Error Message, I foudn the error was "The network name cannot be
found" so that please check whether there is anything wrong with your
source and target of database. Make sure they are "online", also please
check the permission issue. It seems strange and I need more information to
make further troubleshooting.
Would you please generate a small DTS package and see whether it works
fine? To get a better picture of the problem we would like to reproduct the
issue on our end. To expedite the process, please provide us the detailed
reproduce steps.
Thank you for your patience and corperation. If you have any questions or
concerns, don't hesitate to let me know. We are here to be of assistance!
