I set up a scheduled task that starts up a macro in MSAccess automatically.

Assume the scheduled task is to run every 15 minutes. First Question is:
If one of this tasks could not finish within 15 minutes, will the next task
gets fired?

I have tested it, for sure. It appears it won't. Why I ask here, because
there is another problem which I could only explain by denying this
functionality/feature of scheduled task of Windows 2000.

But is there someone who could re-confirm this - will the same task gets
fired again before the last one closes?

Thanks for sharing.
 
Scheduled Tasks|Advanced|View Log should provide the answer.
