You could add the program to your Task Scheduler, (If you have one). Or if need be, add a Timer, then just check the Time and execute your Code at the appropriate Interval.

Thanks Aaron,

er... how do i know if i have a Task Scheduler?

Is NET START SCHEDULE anything to do with it?

the NT Schedule service looks like it might be the thing but any ideas how to use it?

NT Help is no help

I believe the AT command is used to Schedule things, once the Service is running, try AT /? | More at the Command Prompt.
