Schedule

Hi,
I normally pronounce Schedule with c silent as Shedule.
Am I correct,
Coz, Since I came to new Company, here many guys prnouncing it as S'k'edule.

Or, do we have to pronounce "Sheduler" in Windows Envirnoment as "Skeduler" and in general english as Sheduler.

I am in dilama,
whos is correct.

(I think I am correct)

In this case it is not a matter of being correct. In the UK it is pronounced as "shedule". (no 'c') In the US it is pronounced as "skedule".
