Windows "prefers" scripting language nowadays to BAT files. There is an
article in the IBM Knowledge Base I think in building these for some
specific activities. You could use it as the equivalent of the Unix "at" job
queue I am sure.
Something like:
MYCMD.VBS
------------------
Set ShellQueue = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.shell")
ShellQueue.run "%comspec% /c c:\joblists\executable_here",O
Set ShellQueue - Nothing
Save this as with a VBS file extension and add it to the Windows task
scheduler
(any takers?)

Subject: Re: [U2] Execute Windows Script
what would be an example of a windows batch file, that one would want
to run? Maybe a small example, like what the batch file would look
like, would be great. It sounds interesting.
