Crontab does not run


I am having trouble with the Cron utility. I have written a fairly simple bash script that runs successfully on its own but does not work with crontab. I am working on a Windows 2K machine. I tried running a simlilar crontab on a linux machine and it worked fine. Two crontabs I have tried out:

39 10 * * * ./test.txt
39 10 * * * /usr/bin/test.txt

No error messages are generated. Nothing at all happens when the crontab run time occurs. I've tried different crontab settings and have searched for a similar problem on the mailing list, but have had no luck.

Your help is appreciated. Thank you.
