I have scheduled several backup jobs - these do run properly. But, though I have checked the boxes to receive a completion message, this doesn't happen. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Failure to get a completon message
Hi Dolph
Here is my previous reply plus a little extra:
Check that the Run parameter include |M, as shown in the above quote.

Here is my previous reply plus a little extra:
To check a scheduled job open the task scheduler (Tools / Show MS task Scheduler) and right click an AISBackup job, and choose Properties:The run-time parameter if always displaying a message is M, this parameter must be after the ‘pipe’ character |, an example run time parameter for a job called ‘Source to Firewire Disk’ is:
"C:\Program Files\Aquarius IS Consultancy\AISBackup\AISBACKUP.exe" "Source to FireWire Disk|M"
To display this right click the shortcut and choose properties, however, it may be just as quick to set the job up again.
AISBackup uses Notepad.exe to display these messages, and Notepad.exe must be found in the Windows directory (usually C:\WINNT under Windows 2000) - If this is the problem please let us know.
Check that the Run parameter include |M, as shown in the above quote.

Failure to receive completion message.
I never did see your "previous reply" - I must have missed something.
I'm not sure I understand your solution. At the moment the command line for one of the scheduled backups is:
"C:\Program Files\Aquarius IS Consultancy\AISBackup\AISBACKUP.exe" "Total C|Z"
Do I add the M or replace the Z?
Thank you.

Change to:
"C:\Program Files\Aquarius IS Consultancy\AISBackup\AISBACKUP.exe" "Total C|MZ"
The missing M means that the 'Give Completion Message' option was not selected, perhaps an earlier 2.2 beta version did not set this correctly (some work was done in this part of AISBackup to enable scheduled jobs to run without a password).
