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

I had like 10 different job when I was on msde and could view them under management-->sql server agent-->jobs in msde.

Will I need to create batch files using sqlcmd to run each backup command or run a stored procedure or can i simply schedule my existing jobs.

Is there a way to run a already created job. Help with syntax needed thanks

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.
