Am I in the right place ?

[Guest]

I'm trying to schedule my dialup internet connection to start automatically
early in the morning to allow automatic updates. After going through the
schedule wizard I get an error 0x800700005: Access denied. You do not have
permission to perform scheduled task. I am logged on as the administrator.
If this isn't the group to be in maybe someone can point me in the right
direction. Thanks

I did look to see, did you? Nothing on the first page was even remotely
helpful!

This may have nothing to do with your problem but I had problems with
scheduled tasks until I created a user password and then used it when
setting up the task.

To schedule a job in Task Scheduler, you must supply the password of
the scheduling id. If you don't use a password in XP, there is a registry hack
at Kelly's site to allow a blank password. You'll find it here:

Thanks Guys, I didn't realize that when it wanred the user password it
meant the password I use to logon. After I entered that the scheduled task
started OK. Now the proplem is that when I start the ATT XConnection formy
dial up I get a screen that I have to click the CONNECT box to start the
commection. I want to be able to start it automatically. I think I have to
find out more about command line parameters, if that's what I think it
is..I'll keep working on it. Thanks anyhow.

I have used MacroExpress to do the same thing. Might be what you need plus
alot more.
