Hi,
If all you want to do is to do a work on a specific time defined in
your scheduler program, a basic approach would be using a timer and
TimeString object.

For example,
' First enable timer and set interval to 1000 miliseconds
' Assuming you want to do a work at "12:05:10".

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Label1.Text = TimeString

If Label1.Text = "12:05:10" Then
' Work time !
End If

It's optional to disable timer but don't do it to make clock continue.
(you can use a seperate timer for if-then notification).

Hope this helps,

Onur

Which problem do you have? We don't know anything about your skills, so
where can we start explaining? One could say: "I wonder why you are
trying to do something if the only thing that you can do is asking other
people." But I don't say this, of course.

Yes. :-)

visual basic skills.  i'm not sure what other programs, i.e. excel, to
use to help me.

I don't know which you wanna use. If you want to use Excel, in what way,
and what's left for the VB program? Do you have a set target, an image
of the result? Currently I can't add anything to the other two answers.
