Iis

In IIS is there a way to schedule a task or a job like you can in SQL server? For instance: You have an ASP page that sends emails out to a group of people when run. Is there a way to set up IIS to run that page, say once a week?

I'm not sure if you can schedule a task under IIS, but..

why can't you schedule the browser to pull down that page once a week? at 0:30 /EVERY:F "iexplore.exe localhost/mypage.asp"

why can't you schedule a shell or VBScript script that will do the same work the ASP does? You can still access objects such as CDO without the ASP engine.

are you talking about doing this in SQL server? I think I remember seeing those options if you use the Job Wizard. I don't know exactly how to set it up. I tried it but the job always failed to execute.
