RAPID RUNNER -- AUTOMATIC INVOCATION OF PROGRAM?

I know this may be a far stretch, but having a user activited option on Rapid Runner to invoke itself at the time and date specified on the .set would be nice. I am one person for 80 people and being able to set up .set(s) and have them automatically run (and send out via e-mail) would be the best thing!

You can use Windows itself to scheduler a Rapid Runner set as a task.__The command line needs 3 parts. The Rapid Runner executable, the set name and a /run parameter.____Example:____"C:Program FilesRapid RunnerRapidRun.exe" "C:My DocumentsRapid Runner SetsDaily.set" /run____Kathleen__R&R Support

IS there any way to automatically print a group of reports only on weekdays like you could with the old R&R Scheduler?____RHS

The Windows Task Scheduler will allow you to schedule a program for weekdays only.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Dear Kathleen:____Well I am feeling rather dumb, but I can not find in the window^s task scheduler where you can tell it only to run on weekdays. They say in their help, "Schedule a task to run daily, weekly, monthly, or at certain times (such as system startup). " I can find no mention of weekdays only.____What am I missing?____Thanks__RHS

If you choose Daily using the Task Wizard the next screen will offer the Weekdays choice.____If you already have a task, edit it^s properties and on the schedule tab choose Weekly and you will be able to select the days when you want the task to run.____Kathleen__
