win2008 and task scheduler

Hi all,
I'm trying to schedule a task in Windows 2008.
I want it to run hourly every day, which works without issue.

But I want to suspend the task a few hours each day.
So I want to say "run every hour, every day, in between a start time and end
time".

For example, suppose I want to run the task only during normal business
hours, and suspend it after 6pm or something.

Can I do this?
thanks

Server Manager|Configuration|Scheduler, create the task then;

Triggers|New|Daily, set start time 16:00, then Repeat task every hour for
duration of 16 hours would give you a task that starts at 4:00 PM and runs
every day and every hour until 8:00 AM
