Not sure what you mean. You mean like a scheduler?

If that's it you can create a FoxPro timer on the server object and run it at certain intervals and check the time, then fire off other tasks as needed. This should work both in COM and File modes.

Arnold,

We're not here to write your code for you especially with vague questions like the one you posted here.

You can start working on this and if you run into problems or specific questions we're happy to help.
