Hello,
Does anyone know how to schedule opening an Excel file every day at 11:00 AM? (not launching Excel.exe but a chosen file)
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
In Windows 7 or 8, in the Task Scheduler, you need to open the executable file (Excel.exe) located at the root ("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\EXCEL.EXE"). In the argument box, you should enter the name of the file to open with its extension (.xls .xlsx .xlsm ....), and in the "start in" box, you should enter the path to access the file (C:\Users\Ibs4lif\Documents\).
Note: In the program to execute box, you need to use quotes, but not in the other two boxes.
