                                          | there is no sql agent for SQL Express.  You will need to execute scheduled jobs using the Task Scheduler built into your OS.  You can get there (on winxp) by going to Start --> control Panels --> Scheduled Tasks-ec |

                                          | quote:yes, you will have to create batch jobs or vbscripts or powershell scripts to execute your sql jobs.  Google around and you should find some information and code on how this can be accomplished.-ecOriginally posted by harpreetkaur
