thats fine arshad..but plz mak sure that u wud giv me the solution.. :) for time being i hav found out the solution..wat i hav done is, i hav written a function which will keep a track of database..i have written this function under page load..for this my application should be open all the time..and i have made the page to be refreshed for every 20 seconds..this works fine..but i dont think so refreshing a page for every 20 seconds and keeping the application open all the time is a good idea.. hope u give me a better solution.. Thanks, With Regards, Soumya

hiee, i tink its the 1st case..c i ll tel u the problem more clearly. i have a form in which user can enter his message,phone number and time of delivery..suppose i enter my date and time as tomorrow at 4.00 PM and i giv my message and close the form..all these data will go to the database..tomorrow at 4:00PM i should get that message on my mobile.. How it can be done..? this is wat i wanted.. OR u can tel me this also.. how to create a text fime on a predefined time..same like above situation..only difference is instead of sending message to the mobile,tomorrow at 4:00PM(predefined time) i want a text file to be created for the given path.. hope u understand my problem..!!!
