Turn on Retrospect client automatically

Question

In our studio we have Retrospect running as a back up. On some of the G5's, Retrospect client just turns itself off. I was wondering how to write an Applescript or an Automator program that would automatically turn Retrospect client on at a scheduled time say 5 minutes before the back up starts.

Answer 1

As Mike said, Retrospect Client is not scriptable but I was able to put this small UI Elements script together. I hope it helps.
Note. System Prefs/Universal Access/Enable access for assistive devices must be turned on.
launch application "Retrospect Client"
tell application "System Events"
   tell process "Retrospect Client"
      delay 1
      click radio button "On" of radio group 1 of window 1
   end tell
end tell
quit application "Retrospect Client"
