SOON : Command Scheduling Utility
-----------------------------------
Usage : SOON [\\computername] [delay] [/INTERACTIVE] "command"
or : SOON /D [/L:n] [/R:n] [/I:{ON|OFF}]
delay : the number of seconds from now when the scheduled job should start.
/D : modify Default settings and/or display their current values.
/L : set LocalDelay - default delay for Local jobs - initially 5 seconds.
/R : set RemoteDelay - default delay for Remote jobs - initially 15
seconds.
/I : set InteractiveAlways option - initially OFF.
SOON schedules a job to run in the near future, a number of seconds from
now.
SOON closely resembles the AT command because SOON simply runs a suitable AT
command. For a details of the other arguments run "AT /?" without the
quotes.
Examples : SOON CMD /C C:\JOBS\BATCH.CMD
SOON 10 CMD /C C:\JOBS\BATCH.CMD
SOON \\SERVER 60 /C \JOBS\BATCH.CMD
SOON \\SERVER /INTERACTIVE CMD /C C:\JOBS\BATCH.CMD
SOON /d /l:2 /r:30 /i:on
Current Settings : InteractiveAlways = OFF
LocalDelay (seconds) = 5
RemoteDelay (seconds) = 15

Thought of that, and seeing as its actually a VB script its doable. I think
Win32_ScheduledJob Class has an applicable input form, now I just have to
write the VB code to get the time, and add 1 minute. then execute the
statement. I don't use VB enough, so this should take all day J

Can't your script get current time, add 1 minute and use that as the
scheduled time?

Anyone know if it's possible to schedule a job with AT in "1 minute from
now"?
I want to make a script and need to shutdown this way as opposed to simply
shutting down with shutdown.exe and a time.
Thanks!
