Thanks, Memnon! And Bernt and Carsten (and also Russell Adams who had it in the hack I mentioned yesterday)! I'm not sure I understand how it works, but I've added it (plus some debugging) and we'll see how it goes: is the "24:01" a relative time or an absolute time? I can't make heads or tails of the run-at-time doc. And what reschedules it for next time? Doesn't the timer fire once (if REPEAT is nil) and then it's done? I remember I had some misconceptions about run-at-time before and these are probably more misconceptions on my part. One of these days, I'll dust the cobwebs out (but they keep returning...) Nick
