| You'll need to create 96 scheduled tasks, each running at a different
interval.
Or use a custom scheduling program, but it will have to be a service to run
when no user is logged on (like the task scheduler does), and use trickery
to do 'run as'.

Look at the Trigger object for your JOB.
Set the Duration=3D 1426 ' (minutes in a day, less 14)
Interval=3D 15
The easiest way for you to have figured this out
for yourself was to set it up in the Mstask GUI first,
then enumerate through all the properties.
BTW, these settings (DAILY, repeating every few minutes)
is for me the most common type of JOB. Once you learn how
to do one, you can easily come up with other varieties.
hth,
Mark
