Sorry, I don't have a Windows 2003 Server to test this on. However, I do have an XP virtual machine, and schtasks is indeed available, although the /XML option is not. So if XML isn't available on Win2K3, use a different format, like CSV.

Yes, I should have stated I looked at the WMI method and dismissed that because it only gets the tasks added to the system via the AT command. The OLE objects are different between W2K3/XP and older vs. Vista/Win7/W2K8 and up, when I realized this I stopped trying to figure out the TaskLibrary 1.1 interface. I'm looking to be able to do this in-process instead of any kind of shell-out to launch schtasks. My original issue still stands. I would like to get all the configured tasks, finding any that contain a pattern in the task name and then display all/any details I can about those tasks. -- Paul J.

You can, however, use the schtasks command to produce a list of all scheduled tasks and then walk that list. schtasks can produce the output in several formats, xml probably being the most useful for your purposes.

I'm using OleView.exe to look at the SCHEDULERLib (Scheduler 1.0 Type Library).
