would be much easier to answer this question if we knew what
OS is running MYSQL.
I use linux and use cron for most MYSQL stuff.
My pc is NT and for that I use AT.
for win2k Professional, I believe there is a graphical version of AT.

AFAIK there is only 'at' and not 'cron' to be had from the command line.
You could also achieve the desired result using 'at', I guess, but the
action list would become a pain to maintain, and it would also be a
serious abuse of the utility (IMHO, that is).

Your best bet is probably to hunt around for a freeware utility. There's
bound to be something somewhere on the net.

Cheers,

Christian
