Unix "at" / "Cron" Command New Problem...Need help

Hi All,
I am trying to schedule a one time job using the at command with the help of shell script for my project. The shell script should take a parameter as a command line argument from the at command itself. Is it possible to take a command line parameter for a shell script in the command line or else what is the probable solution to acheive it.

Example i tried ..

$ at -f schedule.sh userid 05:30

The userid is the input parameter for the shell script schedule.sh.
Please help us.

Please see this - especially #4 and 5

(Added after seeing poster remarks)

(4) Do not 'bump up' questions if they are not answered promptly. No duplicate or cross-posting and do not report a post where your goal is to get an answer more quickly.

(5) Search the forums database with your keywords before asking.

I had to delete three identical posts from three different forums but I never mentioned homework. And if you are in such a hurry, try paying for support.

Read rule 1 too.
