Yes, for fun.

Three years ago I found a freeware utility called.... crontab for Windows.

Works well, I don't use AT anymore.

Especially when one autumn morning after the time jumped back an hour, I noticed that two AT backup jobs had failed to start.

That was on NT Server 4.

Just for fun right?!?

Actually years ago I wrote a C++ program which took the current time and added fifteen minutes to it and submitted the at command. At the end of each batch file which I wanted to run every fifteen minutes I would add a line calling the C++ program passing the name of my program for the parameter ( atplus15 "c:\myJob.bat"). It's crude but has working for years now. I'm sure the Perl gurus here could probably whip something up similiar if they wanted to.
