time activated script

Is there any way in windows xp to create a script that will run at a given time? Not at start up or shut down but rather at like 4 am. Thanks.

You can use the Scheduled Tasks from Programs > Accessories > System Tools.

If you know how to run it, the at command is a much more efficient way of scheduling tasks. Look in your help for details on the AT command or copy and paste this line:
ms-its:C:\WINDOWS\Help\ntcmds.chm::/at.htm
in your START > RUN dialog box

replace WINDOWS with your system's Windows directory.
