How to execute other programs at the given time?
-
I hope I can express the question with my poor english. I wanna write a dialog based program, and let user to set the time and at the given time, execute other programs(the user gives the exe file path). Can give some code hint or source code like this? Or a program in sourceforge having such function issue.

Task scheduler[^]? That's the API behind Windows Scheduled Tasks. You're much better off using facilities built into the OS than coding an equivalent yourself.
