I want to launch an Access macro at a particular time each day (7:00am each morning) to print a series of reports used daily. I'm weak in Visual Basic stuff and I figure that's where I need to set up the calling routine. Looking for some code, method, or ...... other utility that would launch the program at a specific time and then I could use an autorun macro to generate the reports.
Thanks for your help.
 
What's you OS? Can you not just set a task in your task manger that opens the mdb in question (or a special version with the reports & such that you need), with an AutoExec that prints the reports and then quits?
