So his problem isn't he needs to schedule some tasks, but rather he has to exercise a horrible app by sitting mindlessly in front of a Gui and remembering to click something at it every so often. Poor Grant is going to expire of boredom before the job gets done. But a python program can be plenty intelligent enough for this task. So Grant? How did it go? Would you recommend it for the rest of us? Laura -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
