Scheduled Task Email Alert

Is there any way to get notified by email when a windows scheduled
task fails / succeeds. Please let me know either using a 3rd party
software or scripts / batch files.

You could use blat.exe to get notified. It's available from
a number of sites.

Thanks for the advice however can you provide more details as to how I
can do this with blat.exe I mean do I need to write a batch file?

=============

Your first step should be to download blat.exe.
The second step is to test it until you can successfully
send a message.
The first message is to include the command with
the task whose success you're monitoring. So far
you haven't told us anything about this task.
