Access scheduled tasks while logged in as non-administrator?

When I'm logged into Windows Server 2003 as a non-administrator user, how do I access Scheduled Tasks?

For many other things that require administrator rights, you can right click, run as, and then run as administrator (fill in password etc).
But for scheduled tasks, there seems to be no 'Run As' option.

I tried things like rundll32.exe schedsvc.dll (from a cmdline runned as administrator)l, but that didn't do anything.

Thanks! Just for reference - I got it working with this command: (executed once
from command line opened as administrator)

cacls %systemroot%\Tasks /E /P <myusername>:F

Instead of a specific username you can also fill in a user group, like "Users".

Worked fine! I added a comment with the exact command I used to get it working.

Cheers!

It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
