the problem is how can i run this page because although i make this file to

run daily..but it only open the file in microsoft interdev ,it

does not run it....

please help..i need it to do my project

An ASP is only executed by the ASP parser when it is requested through 

http.

You cannot "run" an ASP simply by double clicking it, and so neither 

can it

be scheduled to run.  VBScript code can be executed on the server 

without

using ASP, by using Windows Script Host.  Rename your ASP as .vbs, 

remove

any references to the ASP object model, and you have a WSH file.



You can run it from the command line using the command



cscript.exe "C:\path\file.vbs"



it can then be scheduled using the AT command



(just type AT /? into the command line for help)
