Hi,

I have a database with following fields:

date

time

text field1

text field2

text field3
I would like to send a report from each day, so selected on one day.

Is this possible in asprunner ?
Best Regards

Didier

Didier,
to run some kind report on timely fashion you need to use an external scheduler.

Scripting languages like ASP do not provide this capability.
You can create a page that creates and emails a report and put it somewhere on your webserver.

After that you can setup a scheduled task in Windows to open this page once a day.
I recommend you to download WGET for this purpose.

You can use command like this one:
wget http://www.yourwebsite.com/report.asp
