Hi,

I need to be able to run a job on specified months.

Example:

For the year of 2005 I need to run a job on January 1, Aprile, August1, and November 1.

Can you help me with the Syntax for that?

I would prefer VBS but JAL would be fine.

Thanks for your help.

Schedule this job to run on the first day of every month

Select script type for the job.

If you choose VBScript enter the following script

Dim pid, vb24x7
Select Case MonthName(Month(Now), False)
Case "January", "April", "August", "November"
Set vb24x7 = CreateObject("vb24x7.Process")
pid = vb4x7.Run("[enter full command line here]")
Set vb4x7 = nothing
End Select

If you choose JAL enter the following script

Dim pid, number
ChooseCase @T"mmmm", END_CHOOSE
Case "January", "April", "August", "November"
Run "[enter full command line here]", "", pid
END_CHOOSE:

Great I appreciate your help.
2 Questions:

1) Whne I put the Months without a specific date does
that mean it will pring on the first? Thats when I want it
printed.

2) This script will kick of a .vbs script. I assume I need to
put the full directory path to that script?

You need to enter a specific day number in to the Day field, which in you case is 1.

Yes, you need to put the full .vbs file name including path.

By the way, if you convert your .vbs script into a VBS job (normally requires just 2 more lines of code Sub Main and End Sub) you immediately gain complete and robust error handling, automatic notifications in the event of a script error, graphical editor and debugger options, options for automatic deployment on another machine, and a lot more.
