    I run easyadposter via scheduled tasks. Each time there is an update, I have to manually change the application paths. I have about 600 tasks. Does anyone know of some software or command line task I can use to change them automatically? thanks

    I am not familiar with the product, so I can not offer specifics. When you state upgrade are you referring to an upgrade of the EasyAdPoster application? Also, I am going to guess here ... are the tasks saved in an ASCII-based file format? If so, a string replace should work ... just a thought.

    you can add and delete tasks via vbscript and windows wmi. Not sure about editing though.
    There are samples at thescriptlibrary com
