schedule Stored procedure using SQL server management studio

  • Hi:

    I want to run a stored procedure every day and hence wanted to scedule it using SQL server Agent in SQL server management studio. How do I do this? Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks

  • Right-click the Jobs tab, select Create New Job. Add the proc as a step in the job, add the schedule you want. If you're comfortable with the usual Windows tabs and forms, it should be easy enough to figure out once you're in the form.

  • Thanks for replying. I have tried to do that but it gives me a error "unable to cast object of type 'Microsoft.sqlserver.management.smo.simpleobjectkey' to type microsoft.sqlserver.management.smo.agent.'jobobjectkey'."

    I ma not sure where i am doing wrong.

    I clicked on job. then slect new. In steps I select new. In step screen there are parameter I set

    type:t-sql

    database: name of my datbase

    then copied the procedure in command window.

    I am not sure what is wrong.

  • Instead of copying the proc into the command window, just put the name of the proc there. Usually, with "dbo." in front of the name. Try that.
