    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using Microsoft.SharePoint;
    using System.Reflection;

    namespace ItemScheduling
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://serverName:1111/"))
                {
                    using (SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)
                    {
                        SPList list=web.Lists["Shared Documents"];
                        list.EnableModeration = true;
                        list.EnableMinorVersions = true;
                        list.Update();

                        //To enable Scheduling in the list
                        Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.EnableScheduling(list);

                        //To disable Scheduling in the list
                        Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.DisableScheduling(list);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
