How about using a KixTart script in conjunction with BLAT (free, easily
found on the Internet), and use the Scheduler service to run the script once
a day at a specified time? Something like this off the top of my head. I am
sure you could come up with something more eloquent.
SELECT
CASE @DATE="2001/09/13"
SHELL "C:\BLAT\BLAT MARYBDAY.TXT -to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s "HAPPY
B-DAY""
CASE @DATE="2001/09/14"
SHELL "C:\BLAT\BLAT JOHNBDAY.TXT -to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s "HAPPY
B-DAY""
CASE @DATE="2001/09/15"
SHELL "C:\BLAT\BLAT SUEBDAY.TXT -to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s "HAPPY
B-DAY""
CASE @DATE="2001/09/16"
SHELL "C:\BLAT\BLAT BOBBDAY.TXT -to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s "HAPPY
B-DAY""
ENDSELECT

Thanks, but I'm not a programmer. I'm afraid VB code would be a bit out
of my league.
Although I *can* handle some PERL, if anyone has any recommendations...

I wrote a module for doing this in VB if you would like the code.

This isn't NT-specific, and for that I apologize. I wasn't sure where
else to turn, though, for some expert advice.
The Superintendent of our school district wants to be able to have an
e-mail message automatically sent to staff members on their birthday.
Can anyone recommend a simple application that will accomplish this?
