Scheduled Task with Password? 1

[LJA520]

Hi All!

I'm trying to set up a scheduled task. I'd like it to open up a password protected Access database. How would I pass in the password so it opens when scheduled and continues running without any user input?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

i had hoped you could pass access a command-line argument to do so, but it doesnt appear to be possible:

so, you might have to use an automation tool such as Automate:

or something like:

I agree with jmp56.
I think you need to use a third-party tool.
