Scheduled task programmaticall y

63 New Member
Dear Freinds

I want to make a program that acts as a reminder for the
users.I need to open up the Scheduled task wizard programmaticall y.If you
type Tasks in the run command the Tasks folder(ie. Scheduled Taks folder)
is opened,but what I want is to open the Add Scheduled Task wizard in it.Is
there any run command to do that?

Also if I am able to open the Scheduled Task wizard like this is
there any way by which I can programmaticall y set an application as the task
by default?

Pls help me and send me any help file regarding opening Scheduled
tasks programmaticall y.

I would not like to use the shell scripting method for the time
being.

I tried using the at command in command prompt.I could add the
scheduled task into the tasks but it cannot be edited manually(it is read only
if we check by clicking and using Scheduled Task wizard) and does not run at the
specified time.I dont know why.

Pls help me as soon as possible.


Thanks in advance Paulson.

Hi, I have a C# app that needs to launch the "Add Scheduled Tasks" wizard found in the control panel "Scheduled Tasks" applet. I realize that this "applet" really just opens the tasks folder, but I need to launch the add tasks wizard inside the folder. Does anyone have any ideas of how to do this? I can't find anything in the MSDN regarding this. All it mentions is the Task Scheduler API and I can't seem to find it in there either. Did...

Hi, I have an ASP.NET web application that runs certain tasks at a given time. Sometimes the task is scheduled to run at a time that coincides with when IIS is recycling an application's worker process. This causes my web application task not to run. Is it possible to query IIS using C# and discover when an application is scheduled to recycle it's worker process?

Hello, I am writing an exe that is intended to be run via a scheduled task. However, I also need the flexibility to have users run the scheduled task manually (right click task and select run). In the event a user runs the task manually I need to verify their identity for logging purposes. So I have two questions: 1. Is there a way to tell if a scheduled task was run because of its scheduled time or if a user manually initiated it?...

I have a strange problem that I think deals with security on SQL 2005. I have a scheduled task that runs on a Windows 2000 machine. It calls a vb script which creates a connection to SQL Server. We migrated a database from SQL 2000 to 2005 which is on a different box. I changed the connection in the vb script to use the new sql server. The original connection to SQL 2000 used the 'sa' account coded into the connection string , which...
