access 2003 doesn't seem to work well with the /x macro name comm.

[Guest]

I am trying to automate a process by using windows task scheduler to run a
macro in an access application. Here's the command line I use:"C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE"
"D:\Customers\Shelley\commissions\test_mac.mdb" /x mac_test

It works fine with access 2000 (office\msaccess.exe) but with access
2003(office11\msaccess.exe) the task does nothing. Why is this? Is there any
suggestion? Thanks

I don't know, but does this have any bearing on the setting you have under:
Tools | Macro | Security,
or sandbox mode:
