Autmation of jobs in Windows

[mysql123]

I am coming from MS SQL and testing to see if mySQL is the right product for our corporation. In MS SQL they have a job scheduler and I was wondering if there was any way to do this through mySQL. Looking through the post I realize that there is not anything directly through mySQL but I could create a script and run through a scheduler. My question is what is the best way to do this in a Windows environment (Windows2000)? Should I create vb scripts, or can I run a dos command? What do I use as a scheduler.

Thanks is advance.

For recommendation of a scheduler program, I recommend that you ask one of the Win32 fora for advice on scheduling apps.

There are too many options as to how to actually write the programs that will be your scheduled jobs. Want the best answers? Ask the best questions:
