Hello there,
thanks very much for your advice. It worked for me (the cron job code is included with this message). Three more questions:
* where are the return values of the lauch method stored (these would be useful when debugging)?
* where do I find a tutorial on advanced cron job expressions?
* if I want exceptions to be reported I guess I have to write them to the report object myself?
Thanks!
Marko
