Kristie, I do something very similar. You can create an RMD file and run Rbase with a bat file in the windows scheduler. I have the code at work and could send it your way tomorrow.
I also have the server here set up so that if the UPS detects a power loss, it fires up Rbase, and dumps table data (for our scheduler app) to a floppy. Then when the power is off, the latest data is on a floppy and can be run into a laptop we have on site... That way, we don't go down if the power does.
