>I have a VFP exe that I want to schedule to run at midnight on our company server. It appears that the exe will not run if an Administrator is not logged on. We can get round this by locking the server rather than logging off, but there is a risk that the exe might not run if the administrator is inadvertently logged off. Is there anyway around this?
