You don't need the AT Scheduler program from the resource Cd If you are happy with the command line version just click on start run cmd then type in at /? or click on start help and look for "at command" for all the info you need. or if you want a gui then just to a search on
www.download.com

You can use the AT Scheduler program, which is located in the NT Resource Kit. There are other third party software programs that allow you to automate cgi and perl scripts. They have been listed in this forum a few times. Search for cron for NT or something like that. I use AT Scheduler and it works great.

Regards,
