I have been asked to transfer files from my work computer to a remote computer at 1 am (when everyone has left the office). I am very familiar with automatic and manual transfers in PC Anywhere but I am not sure how to schedule the transfer to start at 1am (without manually starting the program). I have a W2K workstation. Any recommendations that you can provide are appreciated, thanks!

Which version of pcanywhere do you use?

If you use 9x and below, you can use the pcanywhere script you use to kick off at any default time you want it to

example in your scraw file use this command
Wait Until 0100

The script will kick off at 1am try not to kick of pcanywhere scripts at midnight.

if you use pcanywhere 10.5 kick of the exe you use using win at scheduler or windows scheduler.

if you need more help lemme know I have spend a life time on pcanywhere :) 1 and a half years to be exact :o)
