Depends! Are you talking about Scheduled Tasks (clicking start, going to programs, accessories, system tools, Scheduled Tasks) or something like the AT tool, that uses the WMI Class?

sorry, i didnt explain clearly
i want to use vb to get the scheduler information and display them on asp page. is it possible??

Yes, but that still doesn't answer my question. There are 2 different ways to add tasks in XP..... 1 is by clicking start, going to programs, accessories, system tools, and clicking scheduled Tasks..... that requires a different means than if you used some other program, or if the WMI class was used......
so which is it?

Sorry for the late reply (busy nowadays)

i've been looking through the codes, i find that there is a problem for this coding, where :

need to use the program to create the task scheduler, then the program can read the information. (get what i mean?)

but if i already created the task in my computer and i use this program to read....it failed to do so...

However, i've researched some on this topic, but not sure if it is working.
B4 I used kernel.dll to read and to do something funny on my pc, How if i use the scheduler dll to read the information as well?
Will it works?

thank you

Hmn, it should....
