Is there a way to set the option "Wake the computer to run this task" when
using the command-line tool schtasks.exe?

I have created a html form/jscript to create a task - the script works with
no problems, but I have to open the Scheduled Tasks folder and change the
properties of the new task in order to set the wake option. This pretty much
defeats the purpose of scripting the process...

There doesn't seem to be anything in the Schtasks documentation about
this... has anyone come across an undocumented method? Or any other
suggestions please.

Many thanks,

Mark
