Hi Grant,
I would dearly love such a feature but none exists.
There are a couple of options, the ease of which depends on your
familiarity and development environment.
For example, you can make a service application using Delphi with a
TTimer that fires the SP. This may be desirable if you will be
distributing your program widely or if you would like to do things a
bit more intelligently than the windows scheduler can do.
The other option (as you probably guessed) is to use the windows
scheduler (or linux equivalent cron) to launch isql with the -i
parameter and pass it a script that calls the SP.
I would love it to come with FB 2 or 3, but this is not the right list
to beg for that.
