Hey guys,
I was just wondering if there is any facility like timer in SSIS which basically runs a package every 5 minute?

You would do that through a job scheduler such as what is provided with the SQL Server Agent.

Thank you very much for your post. That was really helpful. But I have unique problem. May be you can add some insight into that. In article, they refer to changing values of security properties in Data Flow task. They do this to let package being configured as a job. Thats fine. But The problem with me is that I don't have any dataflow task , my whole package is defined in Control flow task and I am having one For each loop file container in that which basically moves some files from on location to another. And I want this task to run at a regular interval and that is the reason, why I am using this Job Scheduler.

Now, my question is that how can I set security property when i don't have any task in data flow. Moreover, In data flow property window, it even does not show any security section or Protected property as stated in the article. I am am not sure why I am not able to see this option.

Can you please guide me over this?

What article are you referring to?

You can schedule a package without a data flow.
Have you tried to schedule a job in SQL Server Agent?
