Mohammed,
I tried what you said but it did not work, so I tried a few things and
found
that in the settings where I set the path and file name I had to put the 'Start
in' path even though it says optional. What seemed to happen is it tried to
start in 'c:\windows\system32. Don't know why this happens but when I put the
start in path it works. This is true on 2 different machines that run Windows
7. It works without on XP.

Hi Tom
i am using the Task Scheduler for past 2 years and have multiple tasks being
running
i had faced similar problem earlier
you should check in the Scheduled Tasks by right clicking the task and choose
properties, Properties choose Settings Tab, and choose Stop Task if it runs
for
{ here specify the time for it to quit in case it soesnt }
as if this happens all other tasks fail to run

I posted this before and still do not have an explanation for why this
happens. The new computer is exactly like the one I replaced running Windows
7. All other computers 4-5 running XP and 6-8 running 7 will run my
autobackup
thru task scheduler. All Rbase and compiled apps are up to date. I can run
directly but not thru task scheduler.
Really, really stumped

Subject: Windows task manager question
I have an autobackup exe that I have been using for along time. Basically I
use Windows task manager to run the file at a certain time each night. This
has worked like a charm until I tried to run it on a new machine. It works
fine if you run the file directly from the folder but if it tries to run from
the task manager I get numerous messages like:
Rbase engine driver- \E-error-Invalid configuration file
Error - unrecognized global variable in expression
Error - expression cannot be evaluated
Any ideas why this happens in task manager and not when run directly
