Hourly Scheduled Tasks

[clearlinewebdesign]

Hi,

I have Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 installed. I want to run a
backup script hourly from the "Scheduled Tasks" folder but the most
frequent that I can see is daily. Is there a way around this?

Thanks in advance

I found my own solution. In the "Schedule" tab of the task dialog, you
set the task to "Daily", get the task to start at, say, 0800 and then
click "Advanced". There you tell the task to repeat hourly for 23
hours. The next day, a new task will start and repeat in the same
fashion. Not quite the principle-of-least-surprise approach to
interface design but I think that it will do the trick.
