This is pretty standard, very flexible and I'm sure there's code out there which could be reused. i.e. Minute Hour DayOfMonth Month DayOfWeek Data Where each field can have either a number specifying what to match, an asterisk to match any, a comma seperated list of matched values, a range (1-3) or repeating ranges (e.g. */5 for every 5 minutes.) An example could be: Record at 1pm every Monday and Wednesday of Jan and Feb: 0 13 * 1-2 mon,wed 1:C-61472-7-1204:etc.... Chris
