Hi all!

I've just put Windows Server 2008 onto our home server, after using Windows Server 2003. Is there anyway to make a Scheduled Task interact with the desktop? At the moment I have a .bat file being run as the task then that .bat file is running the program, it's all running fine and doing it's job, I just want to be able to see the program itself - is there anyway to make the task interact with the desktop, so in effect showing the .bat window and the program it's starting? Or even somehow adding a line in the .bat file to tell it to "show" the program?

Many thanks!

At the end of your batch file type:

PAUSE

This should help...
