You might find an additional information on the errors of scheduled tasks in a
file called SchedLgU.txt, located in %WinDir% (or get it by selecting
Advanced\View log menu in Tasks folder)
But in general, the exit messages from Task Manager are the standard NT (or
Win2K) error messages. You can get their description by running
net helpmsg YourErrorCode
to get some description
Error 1 means Incorrect function
Error 2331 means The operation is invalid for this device
Make sure that your job is scheduled with a proper permissions. TaskScheduler
service runs under LocalSystem account, and if you need to copy a file from a
remote place, you need to run it as some other user.

Subject: Win 2000 Task Scheduler - Error Code explanation
A batch program when run manually or scheduled to run in a minute or two
(for testing) runs successfully. When scheduled for after hours with no
activity for about 6 hours or so, the Task Scheduler log file reports
..."The task completed with an exit code of (1)".
An exit code of (0) refers to a successful task. What does exit code (1)
signify? As I'm at it what does exit code (2331) imply? Where among the
plethora of literature did MS put an explanation of these exit codes?
The Task Scheduler runs on a Win 2000 Adv server in an NT 4 Domain. The
Batch job is a simple copy and unzipping operation.
Thanks.
