Stop and Reset option

Post by Guest » Mon Jun 09, 2003 7:29 pm

My company is using MS 6.2.3. The scheduler works just as expected if the "Repeat Continuously" button is check, but if I try to get a schedule to NOT repeat after a specified time, the schedule is not run at all.

EX1: "start task at 07:00 every 10 min, stop and reset at/after 14:00, run immediately when system restarts" This scenario will licit the macro to run when MS is restarted, but no other times.

EX:2 "start task at 07:00 every 10 min, Repeat Continually, run immediately when system restarts" In this scenario the script is run on startup and every 10 min- just as expected.

Anyone have a clue as to what is really going on with this and how to correct it?
