You can from the Task Scheduler.
On the Schedule tab under schedule task monthly select The first Monday of
the months. By default all months are selected.

If I don't have the Task Scheduler?? I've got a Windows NT 4.0 Build 1381:
Service Pack 6a. The Schedule service is started, so I can use the 'at'
command, but shouldn't the 'Scheduled Task' be under 'My Computer' when
opening a 'Windows Explorer' windows? or is it available from somewhere
else?

after a quick search, it seems that the Task Scheduler come with Internet
Explorer since version 2... I 've got IE 5.5 (french), but when trying to
add a component, I don't find the Task Scheduler or Windows Scheduler or
something like it.

Since I can add a Job manually with the prompt I didn't care for the Task
Scheduler, but if I need it to set a job to run only the first monday of
each month, I need to know how to get the Task Scheduler installed.

Thanks.

Maxime.

A Windows Resource Kit utility called WinAT will give you the tool you
need in a GUI format. Otherwise you can use plain old AT from the
command prompt.

If you haven't used AT before, type AT /? for info at the command
prompt or see

HTH!

Ok, I got the WinAt to have the GUI, but I didn't find any place to set the
script to execute the first monday of each month.

How do I get the Task Scheduler??

Thanks
MAx.,

After installing IE 6, Task Scheduler magically appeared...
