[AccessD] Using schtasks.exe to Initiate Access 2007 Report Job on a Server (from a PC)

Jack,

Thanks for the link.  I have read the documentation but I can't seem to get things to work.

I am trying to figure out what has changed between Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2012.

I was hoping that maybe someone else has run into this issue and has an example of schtasks that works with 2012.

Thanks again,
Brad

Brad,

I don't use schtasks nor Windows Server, but I found this http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725744.aspx#BKMK_run
which you have probably read several times.

Trying to help..
Jack
