Henrik,

If your model takes a parameter (e.g. a polygon FeatureClass that is the clip polygon for a clip tool) and this will never change then you could unset this parameter as it never changes. So your model is a model without parameters. This is how your original python script was calling the model
# Calls a model called Test (with no parameters) in a toolbox with the Alias set to AUTO
arcpy.Test_AUTO()

If your model has an input exposed as an input parameter then you will need to supply this. It's important that paramerers are supplied in the order as they are defined in the model properties (parameters tab).# Calls a model called Test (with 1 parameter) in a toolbox with the Alias set to AUTO
arcpy.Test_AUTO(r"c:	emp\clipPoly.shp")

You should not assume your model will always run without error so you should make your code smarter by looking at the result object the model returns and deal with an error accordinglyresObj = arcpy.Test_AUTO(r"c:	emp\clipPoly.shp")
if resObj.status == 4:
    print "success!"
else:
    print "failure :( "

Hi Duncan

I think it may be my model and due to that there is Parametre in it. I just made a simple "Clip Model" and it works.

Basicly i want.* Schedule Windows 7 to run a py script
* The py script to start a model
* Model to run in night time.
* Result to be ready when i meet in to work

I should not be ana "hokus pokus" with the script from above in my first mail, or ?
