Starting Macro at some future date and time

[mmontreuil]

I have a database that requires refresh/update each
week. Does anyone know if you start a macro at some
future time? Or maybe be able to open the specific file
at some future time, having the macro start in startup?
I would like to have the database updated first thing in
the morning when I arrive at work. The refresh process
can take some time.

Thanks

If you want to run it each time you open the application just put the code
(or a call to it) into a macro named Autoexec.

Depending on what OS you have, use Task Scheduler or Scheduled Tasks or AT
service on NT. Have the macro you want to run as the autoexec or use the
command line switch /x macroname.
