That will not be called a "trigger"!

You need to look into SQL Server Agent. You can create SQL Job which can be scheduled to run with requested frequency...

You write a query you want (or you can wrap it into stored proc), then,

using SQL Server Management Studio, you can create a job in SQL Server Agent, which will execute your query or call you stored proc. Schedule it too run at the required time/interval.

Creation of job can be scripted...

don't forget that the Express edition does not include the SQL Agent;

you should spend the $49 dolalrs and get the Developer Edition, which includes the SQL Agentand so much more.
