Program Scheduler

My work computer won't let me use Window's Schedular (there's a conflict between it and the way the network is set up), so I've been using Titanium Schedular for years. But, it will only allow me to run 1 program at a time. I'm looking for something that I can program keystrokes with and something slightly more sophisticated in terms of being able to program when something runs. Anybody have any ideas?

I've never heard of there being a conflict between the scheduled task service and something on the network. What version of windows are you on?

You could always write a batch file or a VBScript and run that with the scheduler.

I think it's the way our computers are imaged.

Nothing leaps to mind. There's a utility called AT.EXE which will kick off a script, but that may well backend to the task scheduler service.

I'd try to figure out whether you can use the scheduled task stuff now. You mentioned it's been a few years, and it's possible that whatever was causing the problem doesn't exist any more.
