Managing scheduled tasks

[Guest]

What is the best way of managing scheduled tasks? My current requirement is
to be able to check on the status of tasks that are supposed to run overnight
- mostly to be able to check that they have all completed successfully. I've
seen talk about wrappers being available but haven't managed to track one
down.

(I realise that I could just grab the log file and parse that down to get at
basic information, but that seems a bit of a kludge.)

Thanks for any ideas.

There's a wrapper here:

Took a bit of work to translate it to VB.Net, but now got it working as
required. Many thanks.
