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
