    Hey there cheese tits....

    I'm a bit stuck.
    I'm programming in asp.net and vb.net.

    I want to send and email at a certain time.
    I've been looking into this for a while now and using the windows scheduler and making a windows service seems the only way to go.

    Is it possible for me to make a windows service (or any other method you know of)to check a table (with the rows user, message, time) in an access database to compare the current time with a time in the database
    and then if the time is equal to now, send a email containing the information from the other two rows to the users email?

    its kinda wrecking my head.
