I've had to reboot my machine because I'm new at BWS also and have done
some things in VB that locked it up or used resources and then didn't free
them back up. I am using the Windows Task Scheduler to open BWS and a
specific script using the /r switch. I've only used it 2 days but it seems
to work and doesn't lose the schedule if BWS is shut down. It seems that
if you close BWS, you lose the scheduled jobs and have to recreate them,
but I don't think you have to recreate them with the Windows Task
Scheduler.
That way BWS only opens and runs at the time the script is supposed to run.
At the end of the script I call a subroutine called Drop:
Sub Drop()
Shutdown=True
End Sub
It closes BWS until needed again, thus no resources or very little. Like I
said, I've only used it 2 days, but it seems to work and I don't need to
worry about keeping it running always.
