Scheduling tasks

I need to install a daily task and looking at this forum I found a reference (in 2001) to the Windows scheduler api at:



Great but this is quite complicated for what I want. I just want to call a executable (with some parameters).

Has anyone played with that? Any scripts to share?


Thanks,

It should be possible to call these APIs using the System plug-in.

Maybe there is also an external application available that makes it easier to create tasks.

Brainsucker wrote an example for System.dll that does exactly this a few months ago. Search the forum and you'll have a working script.

I searched for the post of BrainSucker that you talked about. But I could not find it. Can anyone give a reference to it?

Else I have found this link that simplifies a lot the Scheduler API and gives some examples.
