I have done something similar. I ran an excel program once a day to publish charts to a web site. I used Winat.exe, which is just a GUI to the AT command. Have AT run Access, passing to it the name of the db to start. Create an aotorun macro in the Access database that does your job by calling other macros. Exit from the autorun macro. Make the AT command "Interactive" which will make it interact with anyone that is logged on the workstation. This is necessary so that when/if the prog issues a message box requiring a response, you will be able to respond. Otherwise the prog will hang. The AT command does not log on as a user. The prog is run as "system" or something similar. Therefore, it will not have access to printers configured for any user. I had to mess with the registry to create a printer. I can't remember exactly how I did it. Good luck Chester Jeriad Zoghby wrote in message <6qnn5r$obt$1@amdint2.amd.com>... >Does anyone know where I can find information and examples on NT at commands >(besides the NT help files)?
