You don't want to just use the "scheduled tasks" that windows gives you?

Information about Schtasks.exe in xp for creation schedule task ???

link or example to create schedule task through command prompt ???

I think you are overcomplicating it, just google scheduled tasks. You should able to create one easily using the tools provided by windows.

Just create your normal application and add it to the scheduled tasks. You don't need to worry much about (regarding the code) the scheduling part.
