Using Sharepoint Designer is there a way of scheduling workflows? i.e. I
would like a task to be created at the same time every week.

But here's an idea. If you just want a new task on a schedule, create a
little .Net application that adds the task using the API or the web services.
Probably not much more the 8-10 lines of code to create a little console
application and then schedule it using the Windows task scheduler.

Probably a bit more complicated than Mike's solution above (but with
no coding required) would be to have two custom workflows working on a
custom task-generating list. One workflow would start when anything
is changed and then wait until a custom "Date and Time" column (let's
call it "Time to Create Task"), and then it would create a task in a
list. Another secondary workflow would sit and wait for the first
worklfow to be "Completed" and then do something along the lines of re-
setting the previously-mentioned "Time to Create Task" column to a
week in the future. This would restart the original workflow, which
would create, essentially, an infinite loop of weekly task generation.
