SB6 - Add Scheduled Task suggestion

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich

The present "Add Scheduled Task" task in SB6 allows for setting the time for a task,
but only the Hour. I would like to be also to set the Minute.
I want to run just before 02:00AM each day. I want to avoid using 02 as I forsee a
problem on days when Daylight Savings kicks in or out!

Spring forward and I would expect the PC clock time change might be 01:59:59
->03:00:00
In this case, without deeper knowledge of the OS, my process might not be started on
that day.

I tried entering 01:59 and 01.99 with no luck.

Can you add the Minutes setting to this script task please?

I checked the SetupBuilder source codes and I think we can add the Minutes
setting to "Add/Remove Scheduled Task..."

We'll add this to the next SB6 and SB7 builds.

Thank you for your suggestion.
