If I recall, Blogs automator has a suggested entry of a few cron lines that need to be added. If you are comfortable with ssh, you can do that, or, you can use the cron job entry in your control panel (advanced will allow you to just paste in their entries).

Hi Cd34,

Can the cron be used with quickbooks and X-Cart?

I have a client "CN2 Data" that wants the orders from the cart automatically entered into quickbooks.

Can the cron feature do this?
