  • Scheduling jobs

    Hi, does anyone know if its possible to schedule a program to run via Windows Scheduler service (for all Win32 platfroms ideally) or do I need my own timer ?

    Regards

    Try the following in NT :

    (1) Use the at command to schedule commands and programs to run on a computer at a specified time and date. The Schedule service must be running to use the at command.
    at [\\computername] [[id] [/delete [/yes]]
    at [\\computername] time [/interactive] [/every:date[,...] | /next:date[,...]] "command"

    or

    (2) In the WinNT folder is a sub-folder called Tasks which has an 'Add Scheduled Tasks' wizard.

    Both Win95/98 have the ability to add scheduled tasks.

      Thanks Vince, I was actually looking for a Win API command and didn't even think of shelling out !!
