thanks mate.

what I was asking was this

I have written a program in perl to backup certain files

I wanted to use the at command to set it off during the night while I am away from the machine.

I think from what you have posted that I get the gist of the syntax and what to do but if you think you could be more specific on what I have given you, then please feel free to give me more information.

many thanks
