Schedule

[kanejone]

I have a program that runs an archiving routine. I want to give the user the option to schedule the program for a certain time every day. How do I go about this??

Or how do I access the windows schedular from my program??

Thanks for any suggestions

In a timer place

static flag as boolean, old as integer
If not flag then
   if hour(now)>=8 and minute(now)>=17 and second(now) >=22 then
       'run your thing
       flag=true
   end if
else
   if hour(now)<old then
       flag=false
   end if
   old=hour(now)
end if

Thanks a lot for that. Is there any way to let the user set the time????

Yep, you could have a inputbox asking for the date, use isdate function to determine if it's valid, and then compare the dates in the procdure i gave you:

if hour(now)>=hour(yourdate) and minute(now)>=minute(yourdate) and second(now) >=second(yourdate) then
