Scheduled tasks

I cannot find previous discussions about this so here^s the question again - I want to run a report after hours and am doing this with Scheduled Tasks in Control Panel. What do I point to? I tried the text control file but it just opened the file and didn^t run the report. The frustrating thing is I^ve done this before about 2 yrs ago but that brain cell apparently died ^cause I can^t seem to figure it out now.__Thanks for your help.__

If you have a text control file and are using the Xbase version your task command line would be:__rrwrun.exe /Tmytext.txt____so it is the runtime executable then a space and a /T and then the control file name immediately after the /T with no space.____If the path to the EXE or the control file has a space in it, then surround the name in quotes on the command line.____"C:program filesR&R rw.exe" /T"c:my filesmytext.txt"____Kathleen__R&R Support
