[thelist] Visual Basic Schedule

[Chris Blessing]

Josh-

You could use the Windows Task Scheduler, and your setup program could
automatically add the scheduled event (not sure if this is a registry entry
or a file somewhere).  Alternatively your program could run all the time,
and only do its thing based on an internal schedule that it keeps up with.

hth!
