AT command in DOS help please
I am creating a scheduled job on another PC using the dos AT command.
This works OK, but I am trying to manually assign the id number of the scheduled job, is this possible?
The at/? command doesn't give me much help.
eg
at \\pcname 10:00 /interactive "command in here"
this works ok, but i want to give it a job number thus
at \\pcname 1 10:00 /interactive "command in here"
any help would be greatly appreciated.

I believe that the AT is confusing, and that there are two forms to the command, shown on two separate lines
at ... id /delete...
and
at time /interactive ...command...
AT assigns a number serially to commands it has queued.
at ... id /delete deletes a queued command ...
at time ...
queues a new command (and automatically assigns it a serial number, so that the AT ID /DELETE can be used to delete that command individually.)
hence, you cannot assign an ID to a new queued command - it is assigned automatically.
(Based on NT4 - later versions may be different)
