RE: Running Exe Thru Windows Task Scheduler (Posted by Yousfi Benameur) - www.foxite.com

> I need to run a simple VFP EXE that checks some tables and sends an Email, if required every half an hour through Windows Task Scheduler. (For some reason, I can't have the application running all the time and perform the task through a VFP Timer.) I don't want to display the application on the screen when it launches. I used the following commands in the application.

The flash at starting is caused by the line "_screen.visible=.f."
by experience it can be avoided by a config.fpw with one line

screen=off

Dont rate please.its only for the pleasure to help.Give me only a feed back.
