Desmond,
A couple of questions.
1) Any idea if you are getting any error messages? Any logs you might look at? 2) Will the scheduler run a batch file? If so, could that start the VFP app? 3) You could always write your own scheduler using VFP and set it so it runs on startup. 4) You might try creating a simple VFP app that simply starts up, writes a message to a file, then closes down to see if that works. If so, then it may be a matter of tracking down what is preventing the real app from running (memory allocation, thread conflict, etc.)
Hope one of these helps,
Fletcher

Have a small app that queries a table, pus it in a spreadsheet and emails it out. Worked fine for several months using the Windows Task Scheduler. Now all of a sudden it's refusing to run the app. If I run it from outside of the schedule it works fine!
Is there a way to run the app using another VFP app?
TIA, Desmond
