If so, can someone point me or tell me I can't.

Thanks!
 
Sorry, I should have given a little background. I want to allow client's users to be able to select which reports they want to run at what time using the following steps.

1. Setup the list of reports they want in Excel file

2. Above Excel file is passed to Access app via /cmd option
in Access called by Windows Task Scheduler

3. Access reads the control file and acts as an Automation
Server to run the Reflections Telnet session which will
actually login to the application and request the report.

The above process works very well and does what they need it to do. However, I am manually setting up the Windows Task Scheduler component for them. I would like to automate that piece using VBA (1st choice) or VBScript? or Windows Scripting Host? or ???.

That way they have a complete system available to them.

I am a VBA guy and have almost no experience with VBScript.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Have a great day!
