Nightly, weekly, monthly autoevents?

Is there anyway of creating autoevents, i.e. daily e-mail reminders etc? I have a dedicated server and I'd like to able to send out reminders, and other stuff on a nightly basis. Thanks

Here is a suggestion. Schedule a windows task, to call a .NET windows application, which invokes a web page through which you send your nightly emails. I hope that makes sense. :)

Here is what I had in mind: I. Create a Windows .NET EXE Application using this function that calls an asp.net web page which would do your nightly autoevent: http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=1646&mode=all&userid=1587313&select=2183223&df=100&fr=2109.5#xx2183223xx[^] II. Schedule a Windows Task: 1- Go to the following menu option on the start menu: Start > All Programs > Accessories> System Tools > Schedule Task > 2- Double click on the "Add Scheduled Task" icon. The Scheduled Task Wizard will pop up. 3- Click Next. On the next screen, click the browse button and select the windows "EXE" program you just created. 4- On the next screen, choose Daily, Monthly, etc (how ever often you wish to run it) and hit next. 5- Choose the time and hit next. 6- Enter a username and password and hit next. 7- Click finish to finalize the scheduled task. That should do it.
