Hi,there
I have a vbscript file I want it run every 50 minutes from 9:00 am
in windows command prompt I type in
at 9:00 am /every:50 cscript.exe c:\test.vbs
but it only run once ,I try to modify the property of it in scheduled task,without success.
could some one tell me how to set schedule for vbscript file?
Thanks for any reply!
 
On my scheduled tasks I have c:\winnt\system32\cscript.exe xx.vbs
And in the "Start in" line I have c:\ to provide the path. This provides the exact paths to use.
I've never used the command line syntax - only the scheduled tasks in W2k.
