[thelist] Visual Basic Schedule

[Josh Spiegel]

>>- Write a service that runs permanently, with a timer control that
runs >>your code every hour

Well, I do need to do a fair amount of accessing the "outside world"
(ADO, ODBC, WebBrowser) and I don't know C++ or C # so I guess this is
out.


>>- Write a normal .exe with no forms, just a sub main, and get it to
run
>>every hour from Task Scheduler

Hmmm.  This sounds like a somewhat simple solution.  Why can't I have
forms?  The reason I ask is because my program uses the WebBrowser
control.  I don't think its possible to use it without a form but then
again I am really a newbie to VB.
