David...thanks for the list. I posted just before you on a program
that I'm trying. It's very similar to the VisualCron that you
posted..yes, I have the Framework. Let me compare the two, but these
programs are both on the right track.
What I like about both of them is that they can be set to send an
email message as they hit each step. I can run it at work and get
status reports to my home addess.
