Outlook 2007 - Windows XP Pro - Stand alone PC

For backup purposes, I need to close Outlook each night and I don't always
remember.

Is it possible to run a process from the scheduler that will close Outlook?

Thanks

You can force outlook to close using a script (not recommended - it crashes
it and can corrupt the pst) or use a macro tool like AutoIt.
