scheduled hourly tasks

[janesssssy]

Hi,

I need to set up an hourly or every 30min schedule for programs.
First thing that came to mind was windows XPpro task schedule. But this only seems to do daily / monthly / yearly which isnt up to the job.

Any ideas etc? thanks

edit - found this

can anyone make this easy to understand? all i want to do is run a program on a local machine every 30mins

Found out how to do it. heres the solution:

when you select daily task, create it etc. then open advanced properties for the scheduled task and select desired times etc...

not that hard really.
