Hi, I need to execute a perl script on a Web server every hour. I wanted to use Task Scheduler, but its an Internet Web server and it has been disabled for security reasons.

I should I could use SQL Agent to execute a job (stored procedure) . Does anyone know if there is a SP out there that calls a file and runs it?

Cheers,
SB

Hi

There is a stored proc xp_cmdshell that will execute a command. Take a look at that.

The edit to your post is just me moving it into the developer forum
