SYMPTOMS
========
Some tasks scheduled in System Agent may be reported as being finished as soon
as they begin. The Last Ended and Last Result fields in System Agent, as well as
in the Sagelog.txt file, may indicate that the scheduled task ended successfully
as soon as it started, even if the task is still running.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur with scheduled programs that launch another associated
program.
RESOLUTION
==========
If possible, change the properties of the scheduled task to run the other
program that is run by the originally scheduled program.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95,
version 1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
