Question : change sched task pw via command line

I have a list of job (task) in the scheduler that require to change pw every 30 days.  this become pain of neck for every 30 days to go through each one, click the property, reset the password. and then apply.

I know there is a program in the system called "schtasks" that allow me to list all the task I have,
also can change pw via command lines.  and I can find my system name by typing
hostname in the command line,  e.g.  VSRV1

current name :  run_1,   runs under VSRV!\abc  where abc is the user name
current pw:      pw1
new pw  to reset to  pw2

the synax of the example says:

schtasks /CHANGE /tn run_1  /S VSRV1 /RP pw2
and I get respond:  "access is denied"

can someone help me specific how should I do to make the pw changes via above?

thanks


Answer : change sched task pw via command line

My simple sample

Create a counter.
In qrband.beforeprint inc the counter
In qrband.afterprint check the counter, and if it's as needed force a new page.

See the code example
