This software fills your reminder and scheduling needs. Use Alarm ++ to create multiple alarms which can repeat at various intervals, from simple to complex, from once to forever or until a specific date.
Each alarm can:
remind you of events -- don`t forget meetings, birthdays, deadlines
start applications -- start writing a status report every Friday morning
visit web pages -- read the news every morning or check your stocks weekly
send e-mail to your pager -- get reminders anywhere
execute scripts and batch files -- for even more complex tasks
open folders in Explorer -- check a LAN server folder every month
send e-mail (with or without attachments) -- send reminders or files to people
play sounds -- wake up in the morning to your favorite CD
Each alarm can repeat at many different intervals, such as specific weekdays, weeks, months, and weeks of the month.
They can also repeat any number of times, from once to forever or until a specific date, every few minutes, hours, days, months, or years.
