    OLD!! osql is depricated, and not all users will have osql, isql or sqlcmd available

    Better to use a small vbs script

    which allows both Trusted connections and embedded user name and password

    Why don't you post us a vbscript here so we can see how it works.

    This script works fine for me because I can schedule it in the Windoews' scheduler. You see, my one client has a relatively small business and at this point cannot afford a SQL Server 2008 full version so they use the express version. Therefore I cannot schedule backups and other jobs in SQL Server so I'll use this script to run a scheduled job in Windows.

    Thanks for this cscript and no matter what anyone else say if they don't think it is good the they must post something better. Amen
