Using the Task Scheduler
Use the Microsoft Task Scheduler when you want to delay a
Profile activity from occurring until at a later time. This option is
available for many Profile software activities, including printing
reports, collecting monitor data, and importing data. For example,
while using the Tabular Reporter, schedule a tabular report print
activity to occur at a later time by choosing the Schedule button in
the Print dialog. Use the Task Scheduler to delay a long-distance
data collect activity to occur at a time when long-distance telephone
rates are lower or to schedule a local collect to occur during non-
work hours. After successfully installing the Task Scheduler
software, the application starts each time you start Windows and
continues to operate in the background.
Warning: Disabling the Task Scheduler will prevent
scheduled activities from occurring.
Scheduling a Task
Note: Errors will occur when scheduling tasks created
with the / symbol. Therefore, do not use this symbol when
creating templates.
Schedule a Profile activity to occur by performing the following
steps from any Profile dialog that allows activity scheduling:
1. Select the Schedule button from the current dialog that offers
the Scheduler feature to display the Save As dialog.
