I'm trying to schedule a batch job to run every night. Everything works
fine, except it won't let me enter my password.

I am the administrator; I have all privileges. In the Scheduled Task
Properties dialog, it has "Run as" = <computername>\<username> correctly.
But, when I try to enter my password, I get an error dialog: "An error has
occurred while attempting to set task account information. The specific
error is: 0x80070005: Access is denied. You do not have permission to
perform the requested operation."

How could I not have that permission? What do I do about it?

Dick.
