PC WSPlus: Command-Line Parameters for Schedule+ Reminders (101615)

This article was previously published under Q101615

Reminders in version 1.0 of Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows are loaded when you start Schedule+, or when you start Windows (if the Reminders icon is in the Windows Startup group). You can cause Schedule+ Reminders to only function when Schedule+ is running or not to function at all.

You can use the following command-line parameters to control this functionality:

   /x     Turns off Reminders when you exit out of Schedule+.

   /r     Completely turns off Schedule+ Reminders--you will never be
          reminded of anything.
		

Example

By default, Schedule+ Reminders checks your calendar file every minute. Over a Remote Access (RAS) connection line, this can be very time consuming. By turning off reminders, Schedule+ should work much faster.

To completely turn off reminders, do the following:

1. Select the Schedule+ icon in Windows Program Manager.
2. From the Program Manager File menu, choose Properties.
3. Modify the Command Line box to read as follows:

   c:\schdplus\schdplus.exe /r
