Automating / Scripting programs

Posted by Mike Saunders on March 30, 2007 at 06:56:01:

So who is doing what for Automating / Scripting, programs and/or series of programs to run at scheduled times?

This would allow users to create Scripts (command files) to run the programs in the sequence and at the time, they desire. These scripts would supply the program to run, time, and necessary answers to the prompts from the program, to get the program to do what is required.

Is the use of Windows Task Scheduler and the /KEYFILE the only way to go?

Anybody have an "internal" solution?
Perhaps a Comet program that makes use of the WAKEUP statement?

Anybody using an "external" solution?
Perhaps such as the WINBATCH, from Wilson WindowWare.
Thanks.
