        Will "at" continue to run after I have logged out and rebooted my system?

          Yes, the scheduler runs as a service (NT equivalent of a daemon) --Mike--    THERE IS NO     THERE IS NO    BUT THERE IS MAGIC PIXIE DUST  BUSINESS GENIE  CODE PROJECT :bob: Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber

            Thank you so much for your replies so far, but I have one more question. Can I run "a job" every 5 minutes with at? If so could you please post a trival example at coomand example of this? I can only figure out how to get at to run once a day.

              The at command-line interface doesn't support that, but you can do that thru the Explorer interface. (Control panel-Scheduled tasks) Create a new task, and in its properties you can set it to repeat every 5 minutes. --Mike--    THERE IS NO     THERE IS NO    BUT THERE IS MAGIC PIXIE DUST  BUSINESS GENIE  CODE PROJECT :bob: Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber

                don't have to be logged in for that to work? I need a cron-like tool.
