Kicking off scheduled tasks

[levinll]

Is there a way to launch a VB application so that only specific code gets run as part of a nightly scheduled job ? I'm coming from a MS Access world where Access had macros that you could launch by making the macro name an argument when you ran Access.

Thanks

Compile your VB program to an EXE.

In your code, check the Command$ system variable. This contains any arguments to the program.

Sounds good. My only question is how do you check the Command$ system variable.
