simple command prompt one line into exe

I have a perl script that I run from the command prompt: 3 times a day, the problem is now I need to run it every two hours. Im not going to be on an episode of lost so I need some help. Here is the command:

Perl C:/test/scripts/edi.pl

Does anyone know how this 开发者_JS百科above one line command can be made into an executable (.exe) file so I can use the task scheduler to run?

If there is another way to do this with the task scheduler to run once every two hours every day then I could do that as well.

Thanks for your time.

Can you not simply create a batch file that runs the script, and set that batch file to run every two hours? I know from a quick test there that I can schedule a batch file to run from Task Scheduler on Windows XP at least.

You can actually use the task scheduler to run that exact command without a batch.

The task scheduler should allow you to pass some arguments to the script without a problem (I have done this on a few Windows servers in order to have them run PHP scripts)
