This feature can be quite interesting whenever your research project
requires you to run a certain application more frequently.
With the Alerts utility you can run such applications of special
interest automatically.
The Alerts window shows you a list of the regular jobs
currently defined. In this window you can change their frequency of
repetition and schedule, or remove a job.
By clicking on the name of a job you can also change its parameters,
or run it immediately. Do not forget to click onto Apply changes
before closing this window in order to save your changes.
However, no new job can be created in this window. To create and define
a new regularly repeated job load the Application window and
change the mode from NOW to the frequency of repetition you wish (daily,
weekly, or monthly). After you activated the Run button this
job will not start immediately. Instead it will be added to the
table of Regularly Repeated Jobs and the program will start
at the time point specified. You can check the results of this regular job at
anytime. They will be shown in the  
Result window.
