Scheduling a task issue

[notta]

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

MsgBox(0,"","schtasks /create /sc hourly /tn Scan /mo 2 /sd " & $startDate & " /ed " & $endDate & " /tr " & $fileScanTool)
    $run = RunWait(@ComSpec & " /C schtasks /create /sc hourly /tn Scan /mo 2 /sd " & $startDate & " /ed " & $endDate & " /tr notepad.exe", @SW_HIDE)

I'm banging my head against the desk. If I type this command into a command prompt it works fine. The message box displays everything correctly, but it's not adding the task into the scheduler. Any ideas?

@notta..What is the format of your date?

This works for me...Here you go...

$Username="someusername"
$Password="somepassword"

$startDate="09/17/2008"
$endDate="09/18/2008"

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'schtasks /create /sc hourly /ru ' & $Username & ' /rp ' & $Password & ' /tn Scan /mo 2 /sd ' & $startDate & ' /ed ' & $endDate & ' /tr notepad.exe', "", @SW_HIDE)

Thanks DJ. I forgot to put in the spacer for the workingdir parameter. Added the "" and it works fine now. Duh
