Deleting an at job

[Guest]

I know at command is obsolete, but it is still the only way which works for
me for scheduling jobs. However, I have trouble deleting a specific job.

I schedule some jobs using at command of dos.
When I type at, it shows me


C:\Documents and Settings\admin_Pmehrotr>at
Status ID Day Time Command Line
------------------------------­------------------------------­-------------------
1 Each M T W Th F S Su 12:00 PM cmd.exe /C
"e:\oracle\dev\prod
uct\10.1.0\admin\itgdev\script­s\myaddon\expdp.bat >>
c:\temp\atlog_expdp.txt"


Now when I want to delete this job:


at 1 /delete


I get a message job id does not exist, why? How I can remove a job so
it does not run through the scheduler.

You can delete it from;

%systemroot%\tasks\

folder. Look for files named AT*

Dave:

Thanks. Yes, that is one way of deleting. However, documented at /delete
method never works for me.

Pre,
