automated, scheduled backups via msbackup.exe

How do you...
Perform *scheduled*, *automatic* backups
by running MS backup utility (msbackup.exe)
under Window Me
as a *job* from Windows Task Scheduling utility?

This is how far I've got.

It's easy to start (just that, *start*) msbackup
in a scheduled, automatic fashion
(the Task Scheduler provides a wizard for that).

Of course, it would *then* be necessary
for msbackup to go ahead and perform
(pre-created, named) msbackup tasks.

Now, the wizard provides access to specify
'Advanced Options' for the scheduled application.
This suggests me of using *command line switches* for msbackup.exe.

In other words:
*Are* there any such switches
to make msbackup.exe directly perform
pre-created, named msbackup tasks?

Thanks. Great site!

“This behavior occurs because Task Scheduler only starts Microsoft Backup, not the backup job. The version of Backup that is included with Windows 98 does not support a backup job being started automatically, so you must be present to begin the backup job... To resolve this issue, upgrade to a backup program that supports completely unattended backup jobs.” Larry
