Hi Gerry,
    I can't answer all of your questions, but I'll try to help. We use CE9
with all of the components installed on one machine, but I only have a few
that are scheduled to be processed routinely. We have manually scheduled
the report to run at the desired time on a specific interval. Most of my
reports take only seconds to process, so I would think that all of my
reports could be scheduled successfully over night. This all depends on the
complexity of your reports. I'm not sure what the best way to do this for
so many report would be. I would think that there is programmatic way of
calling the reports, one at a time, for scheduling. I'd be interested in
this answer myself. I don't know what that "Apos Excel" thing is, sorry.
