Can anyone recommend programs for my iPAQ 2210 (WM2003) which would
let me run a program at say 5 minute intervals to apply operations to
another running program please? IOW run a 'macro' at set intervals?

This is to get around a serious deficiency in my Memory-Map program.
It doesn't take a backup when it closes, nor does it allow automatic
scheduled backups. So, to minimise the risk of losing a GPS recording
during a walk, I have to regularly manually save a backup file.

So in effect I need two things:
1) A simple version of the System Scheduler on my desktop PC
2) A macro program

Ideally these functions would be combined, but I suspect two separate
programs will be needed.

Any suggestions would be appreciated please.

SkScheMa. I've explained in pretty much detail how it can be used to
automatize tasks on my blog.

Thanks Werner, I'll study your explanation. I did see the program at
the SK site earlier today, and first reaction was that (for a
non-programmer anyway) it looked rather complex.

I got no hits with 'SkScheMa' or 'macro'

The search engine needs to be used without the (single) quotes.
