If statements and loops

Let me give you some background information on what I am trying to do here.

What my goal is with this script is for it to check my system clock, if the time in the clock = 09:00, then it should run the program in the directory I have selected.

Everything works fine, just one issue. The script will work if I set the time to load the program equal to the time it currently is then run it. However, if I set the time to run the program a few (I am using 1 just to speed things up) minutes ahead of when I execute the script, it will never run the program.
My if statement is in a loop, this does not solve the issue. The console is checking for the time but for some reason the if will not return true, even if it is.

I'm having a sort of difficult time explaining this..bottom line is..how can I get the script to keep refreshing the if statement? And when the requirements are met..do whats in the {}?

Code:

FormatTime, TimeString, HH:mm, HH:mm
Loop{
If TimeString = 00:45 ;Its 12:45 here
{
Run C:\Program FIles\Program\Program.exe
exit
}
}
