Thanks all for replying to my question.
I will give John Vieth's solution a shot as we want to do it in ASP. Thanks all again for the replies -Mokles Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2004 08:59:16 -0600 From: "John Vieth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: How to send email at scheduled time I'm doing this. It's easy. Just write a very short, easy console program using C#.NET or VB.NET and compile it using the free .NET compiler or Visual Studio .NET. What you end up with is an executable that you can run like any windows executable, except this happens to run in a command prompt window. Just use "Scheduled Tasks" to schedule the program to run whenever you want it to. As for how to write the .NET program... The same .NET Framework that is available in ASP.NET pages is available to console programs, so the code to send the e-mail message works the same way. If you know ASP.NET, then you can write a console program. You can find a simple skeleton for a console program by doing a Google search. Then just add the code for your specific task. Any "Learning C#" book will tell you how to write a console program, too. The free compiler is available with the .NET Framework and .NET SDK that are available for download from Microsoft's website. Hope that helps. - Vieth ----- Original Message ----- > From: moklesurr > To: [email protected] > Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 2:29 PM > Subject: [ASP] How to send email at scheduled time > > > > > Hi All, > > We would like to send email at scheduled time everyday, possibly > using ASP.
