Hi All,
I have started to play with scripting since the last NT Partners meeting.
I am very stuck with the AT command and its variant SOON.  If I enter a
command it will show up in WINAT as an active task and execute on time, but
nothing happens.  For example  SOON 60 "CMD /C j:\Software\bin\sysinfo.bat"
 Should run SYSINFO.BAT in 60 seconds, but all that happens is that in 60
seconds it is removed from the task scheduler.  This happen when I try to
run this locally or remotely.  Task scheduler is running in both cases.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
