Most of the troubles I've had with the scheduler arose when the program uses logical drives. You can solve this by wrapping the .exe into a .bat file and "net use" the logical drives before you call the program.
Good luck.

But when I run it from the task scheduler, it gets stuck somewhere in the program. I do not know where, since I have removed all user interface statements like SET MESSAGE. Also the config.fpw has SCREEN=OFF.
