Hi Manish,

for clarification, Perl script along with Perl is a aplication - not a
service which is always running. There must be something else that will
wake and trick  the script going. There is no point as KJW wrote try to
do it in perl. It could be done but it is an other story, a long one.
Try to settle on standard system - TaskSheduler or Cron.


Terveisin - Best regards 

Ari

Hello Manish,

The best way to do something like that would be to take advantage of
cron (on Unix machines) or Task Scheduler (on Windows machines).  It
will save you a lot of headache.

Cheers,
