Peter,
if you need a better scheduler, Sean Cross (who appears on this list
occaisionally) has written a very nice scheduler in Delphi which is
available as shareware. I can't remember the web page address, but his email
is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm glad you posted this. I was just about to write a batch file to set up
AT instructions for running a Python script on a clients site in Australia,
but if it's that unreliable I might just do it another way.
