By monitoring this bulletin board I have noticed that it is possible to have a application as soon as windows launches by adding settings to the run section of the registry.
I have an application that needs to run at a certain time every day and it would be nice to automate it by having windows launch the application at the same time every day. I know that I can have the application start as soon as windows starts and then watch the system clock for the proper time by having a timing loop. Then when the proper time comes about then the application can do it's stuff.
Is there a way for windows to start the application at a specfic time by using the system registry without having to use the windows task manager program located on the windows 95 compaion cd?
By all of the research that I have done, I am afraid that what I want to do is immpossible without the task manager program. Am I correct to assume this?
Does anyone know how to do this in Windows 2000?
Thank you in advance for your help.
