Manivannan - In a word, no. It's database software, not, um, cron. :)
There are scheduled events in 5.1, but that is more of a trigger-like functionality than what you need, which is a scheduled task to save your data somewhere. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/events.html You could look at establishing a central backup server that would do nothing but perform scheduled backups of your remote databases, thus simplifying your backup management and using only a single platform to do the backups. On Windows, you can use its built-in "Scheduled Tasks" function, which I have found to work passably well in recent versions of Windows Server. There are also other cron-like solutions out there - one I have used in the past is nncron lite - http://www.nncron.ru/ HTH, Dan On 9/13/07, Manivannan Palanichamy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi, > Is there any built-in backup scheduler for mysql database server?
