cron problem

Hi all
I am having a problem with running a file from cron. The command runs ok from the command line but from within cron I get back errors similar to this

open client message
Attempt to load protocol driver failed

the HTML output filename is "xxxxxxxx"
cannot connect to database:[VENDORLIB] vendor lib error

I am a newbie at this so please bear with me
