					Simple VBScript - Autorun macro every night?
				
					
						
							I want to run a macro in one of my excel files (on our server) every morning at 4am.  I want the macro to runautomatically even when I am not logged in.  How do I do this?
 
 I have learned that I can create a .VBS file and use Control Panel > Scheduled Tasks to have the VBS file executed every morning.  I have no clue how to write the 4 lines of VBS code that I need.  I can show a messagebox with "msgbox("hello")".  I need to open an Excel file, run the macro, and close the Excel file.  It should be about three lines of code.  I cannot figure out how to open an Excel file from the VBScript.  I have been coding a fair amount of VBA and hae read extensivley about VBA coding.  This should be simple, but I don't know where to start.
 
 Thanks for any help,
 Brad
