5962.0. "Problem with AT and 16-bit software" by SU2PLY::CUNNINGHAM () Mon Apr 28 1997 13:46

    Hi,
    I am trying to use the AT scheduler in Windows NT workstation 4.0 with
    16 bit MS Access 2.0. I keep getting an "application error" message that 
    references a stack fault whenever I attempt to execute the .bat file
    that contains .exe for MS Access. Is this an incompatibility issue
    between NT 4.0 and 16-bit software? 
    
                                                Thanks, John Cunningham
                                                SBU IM&T

	Are you using AT from the command prompt or using the utility from the Resource Kit.

	Two things: 1) Are you trying to run Access 2.0 while your system is logged on - if so then specify a "/INTERACTIVE" on the AT command line. This is what is needed to run an application that shows a user interface. 2) Are you trying to run Access 2.0 while your system is logged out - if so then I do not believe you are going to be able to make it work - this situation requires the scheduled application to not show a user interface.
