How do I schedule basic Cron task?

Hi Guys.
I've never set up a Cron job before and I have a very basic question:

I want to run a certain task every 15 minutes of every day of the month.

1. What do I enter in the "Minute" box? Do I enter "15"?

2. If I want to run the task every day of the month, I enter an asterisk in that field. But, do I also enter an asterisk in "Day of the Week" as well?

Thanks very much!

Ron
 
For every 15 minutes you would enter */15 in the minute box.

Question 2... you would also enter in an asterisk for the day of the week...

Cheers
