JerryD Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Well I don't know how you get a script to run BEFORE it ends, but you don't want to do that in the script anyway. Just use Window's Scheduler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEOSoft Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) The Windows Sceduler is the best way but if you want your script to just sit idle for 57 minutes then run a function then While 1 Do Sleep(10000) Until @Min = 57 and @Sec <=11 Function() Wend EDIT: That checks every 10 seconds If you just want to check every minute Then change sleep(10000) to Sleep(60000).
