SQL Svr Express, Automating tasks

  • How could I go about automating tasks with the Express edition: such as backups, alert notifications, maybe some jobs?

    thanks.

    Edit: this thread contains some information on automating tasks in Express Edition.

  • Out of interest why did you start a new topic, when you have asked the question 5 days ago and others had answered? Were those answers not good enough, did they not work, something else?

    I'd suggest, rather than making a new topic you reply to your original topic with any further questions or problems you had. Those that replied will be able to then respond with further answers. 😎

    Excuse my typos and sometimes awful grammar. My fingers work faster than my brain does.

    Most things can be done using Windows tasks scheduler and sqlcmd. There are many examples available if you search - some examples would be:

     How to schedule jobs in sql server express
     An alternative to SQL Server email alerts
