An option is to use ISQL to execute an SQL script and Windows Task Scheduler
to periodicaly run ISQL, ex:

create some SQL script like, proc.sql:

execute procedure some_proc;
commit;

Use Windows Task Scheduler to schedule a task like:

isql servername:dbname -i proc.sql -user <user> -pass <pass>

(you may use a .bat script for that)
