    Unhappy program run as service

    I need a program which run as service (in the background). The program read a txt file where are informations: date/time, message.
    example TXT file: Date:2008/05/30 Time:20:00 Message:Go to cinema.

    When turn on the alarm, put on screen the message which is written in txt file (Go to cinema).

    Any idea...

    This program called TaskScheduler and is part of the Windows - use it
