Where should I store that SQL querry ?
Does it have to be in a store procedure and then run that store procedure
from a schedule task ?

If I use the task scheduler to run the store procedure, I do not need the
GETDATE function, the UPDATE is enough right ?

--|||That was the idea I get at first.
Something like storing the desire date/Time when the status needs to be
changed and then update teh status when the date/time field is corresponding
to current date.
But then if I do that I can use different methode to check this date.
Either I can do it in my client VB application or on the server itself.
But if I do it on the server side what shoudl I use to pol the current date
and check if it correspond to the one store in the table and then if it is
update the field.
Can we make some loop in server procedure ?
Sorry I am new n that and could not get the proper way
thnaks for your help

by the way I have try to run a script from a new job that I schedule at a
certain time. If I run the script from the querry analyser it works fine, bu
t
when I put it as a new job and load the script file to execute, the set the
time to schedule it, it is not updating or may be not runing at all.
Script is :
EXEC dbo.UpdateStatus
GO
and UpdateStatus is a store procedure
Any idea?
