Hi,

I have an aspx file that has all the business logic required for firing an email based on the current date.

Now i want to schedule this process ie. no human interaction needed.

How can i achieve this??
Can i write a batch program and give the source to this ASPX file.

Regards

Jaya

ASP.NET is not intended to be used for scheduled events. My suggestion is to take the code out of the ASPX file and create a simple console application. You shouldn't have make many if any code changes to get it to run at a console. Then you can use the standard OS scheduler to set up an execution schedule for the application.

Thanks for your response Peter.
I have never worked with such console applications.

Will try to achieve it using Console applications else u will find more some queries from me :)

Console apps are pretty simple. (If you are using C# they are a bit harder.) Unless you need to deal with command line arguments it's pretty straight forward. Anything you can do in ASP.NET you can do in a console app (with obvious acception of all the controls and stuff in the System.Web namespace. But it sounds like you aren't using much of that if you wrote a page that just does processing.

Please post back if you have more questions. (And if you do, perhaps the General .Net forum would be a good place for a new thread.)
