    Problem with setting Start Date for a task Programatically-URGENT

    I am using :Win32_ScheduledJob Class for scheduling a certain task using Visual Basic .I am able to schedule the task with the parameters specified in the class.But I am not able to set the start date for the task.
    How to set the start date for a task in Visual Basic program, while creating the task?
    Is there any other way to create a task in visual basic other than Win32_ScheduledJob Class where we can easily set start date?

    do you need to dynamically create this task? if not, you might just want to use AT (if you are on NT/2k/XP/2k3)

    I don't believe you can schedule the task to run on a specified date. Once the task is created it will execute at the next specified day of month or week.
