The IT person said he would set up the program in the Win schedule under his account. I don't have his credentials; so I can't.
As far as problems, I set up the program to save error messages, if occurred, into a log file. So, I will be checking the log file for a few weeks. Then, once I see it works without a glitch, I may or may not set up email.
The customer knows - expects - that a bunch of reports will be printed on Monday morning. So, if nothing is printed, they will let me know, I am sure.
