Re: Can't get the Scheduler to work
Hello Roger, My scheduler has always had a bug in it whereby it actuates one hour earlier than the time I program it to do something. If you have the same problem and want it to remind you in five minutes time, try setting it for one hour and five minutes. Oh my God!!! That _is_ my problem!!! Obviously, for my tests I was always setting the time just 2 or 3 minutes from now. I'll be very interested to hear if this solves your problem. I have reported this behaviour as a possible bug but have never been able to get confirmation from anyone else, possibly because in some cases it may not be obviously noticeable Yes, it does solve the problem in my case. Actually, I am replying to your message now because I set a reminder a few minutes ago. Thanks so much :-)) -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: Can't get the Scheduler to work
Hello Peter, Confirmed on Win98SE and TB v2.01.15 beta. So there is at least three of us with this problem. I am just wondering if this may have something to do with the daylight time saving change last weekend. Because, as I say in my message, I tested the scheduler a bit a few weeks ago and it seemed to work. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Hello Brigitte, I usually lurk here (someone *always* posts about my question before I get a moment to ask G) Yes, that's a typical lurker :)) I noticed this behaviour earlier this week and thought the same thing. Yes, it all points to a problem with the time change. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

I don't think it *is* a time change problem. My scheduler had the bug before you changed from summertime. In any case where I am (South Africa) there has been no change to our clocks.I suspect that many scheduler users either haven't noticed a problem or have merely set the scheduler one hour later to compensate for its error. -- Best regards, Roger Using The Bat! v2.01.15 on Windows ME, v4.90 Build 3000 Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

You may be right. I obviously can't prove that problems in my case were due to the time change. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
