Is your task referencing mapped drives? If that's the case, that app would only work if a user that maps drives is logged on. We got around that by using all UNC references (\\server\share\) for the tables that were needed. Another way that works is for the scheduler to execute a batch file that maps the drives then it executes the VFP.EXE from the batch file.
