Event Option Window
The Event Option Window allows you to perform additional actions if the
scheduled event returns certain Errorlevel codes. The Window style
to use when the event is run can also be defined.

Place a check mark between the [ ]'s to activate an Errorlevel choice.
Then type the number of the Errorlevel to monitor. If that Errorlevel
is returned by the event, the command defined by the Run: [ ] choice
will be launched.
Run this Event from:
DOS Scheduler - Select this to run the event from SCHEDDOS.EXE.
Windows Scheduler - Select this to run the event from SCHEDWIN.EXE.
Network Login Script - Select this to run the event from LANAGENT.EXE.
[ ] Mark the event as completed: Select this option if you still want
the event to be treated as completed, even though the selected
Errorlevel was returned. Leave this choice blank if you want
the scheduled event to be performed again if the Errorlevel is
returned.
Example: The scheduler is run when the workstation logs into the network.
If a virus is detected during a weekly virus scan, a LOGOUT batch
file will be run to send an alert message to the network administrator
and log the workstation off the network. Instead of allowing the
workstation to log into the network again and not be scanned until
the following week, by leaving this "Completed" choice unmarked, the
virus scan event will be launched the next time the workstation logs
into the network. As long as a virus is found on the workstation,
the LOGOUT.BAT file will be run. When the workstation is virus free,
the virus scanner will not return the virus Errorlevel, and the
workstation will be allowed to log into the network.
Run: [ ] Type in the command-line that should be run when the Errorlevel
is returned.
Run Style: In Microsoft Windows, programs can be run in Normal, Minimized,
or Maximized windows. Select the window type to use when the
Scheduled Event is run.

File Window
Select the file to run by selecting the required drive, directory
