Jacky,

It sounds like you've got code like:

do while .t.
   lnNextExecution = datetime() + 600
   do while datetime() < lnNextExecution
   enddo
   DoTheRealThing()
enddo

Well, that's were all your CPU utilization is being consumed. Use the Sleep() API

do while .t.
   doevents
   Sleep(60000)
   DoTheRealThing()
enddo

Or maybe even just use the Task Scheduler of Win2k to simply launch and run your app every 10 minutes.
