I am new to Window NT server. What I am trying to do is schedul a program to run everynight at 8:00 o'clock. Is a way to do it. Please give a step by step advice.

Thank you
 
Hi,

You can use the AT command with the following syntax

AT [\\computername] time [/INTERACTIVE]
[ /EVERY:date[,...] | /NEXT:date[,...]] "command"

so your command would be

at 20:00 /every:m, t, w, th, f, s, su "your command"

Note, is you are typing this on the target server then you do not need the [\\computername] option. Also the schedule server needs to be running.

Bye.
