Scheduled Task issue

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm trying to run a Scheduled Task backup using an SQL database. For some
reason it creates the task but doesn't run it. The following information is
in the Run field in the Task Properties.

"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Administrator 1.1\MySQLAdministrator.exe"
"-UDC:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\MySQL\" "-c"
"-bpRDIRANI1" "-btC:\" "-bxRDIRANI1"

Is Scheduled Task only good for opening applications and not running them?
Please advise. Thanks!

Did you apply an account with the needed security levels and its associated password ?

If I were you, I would put this stuff in a batch file and then have Task
Scheduler schedule the batch file. That way you won't need to enclose
everything in double quotes, just the file names.
