I have a basic time keeping access application, I need it to do certain tasks automatically at a specified time of day.

Can access monitor the system clock and run a command at say..11:45AM Each Day?
 
Take a look at the OnTimer and TimerInterval properties of the Form object.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Another possibility is to use a scheduler application to start Access and run a macro to perform an operation then exit Access. This makes it unnecessary for Access to occupy cpu time and RAM space except for when the process must run. Check out Startup command-line options in Help.
