Solve : scheduling a bat execution problem?

Answer»

I built a bat FILE in dos to copy all my documents on the desktop to my backup drive. I want to SCHEDULE the bat to run every day at 7:00pm. I set it up in XP "schedule task" but it fails with a "the scheduled tasks did not run because an incorrect password or user name was entered" . I built the scheduled task with a password and without and still get the same error.

1. Am I going about this problem the EASIEST way? (bat file and scheduled tasks)
2. If so then whats this error mean?

Thanks
Sounds LIKE the problem might lie with your backup destination. Where are you attempting to backup your files?Nevermind, I found it on the on Microsoft web site. You can't have a blank password on your user acct. I fixed it and its now its works.
