VBS type functionality in .NET

[Guest]

Hi

I'm in the very early stages of learning about developing in .NET using C#.
I have been developing web based systems for many years using ASP & Vbscript.

The situation I have been dumped with is this.

In the past I have been able to run VBS files to perform a number of
functions and scheduling these using Task Scheduler, could be batch emailing,
system status, that kind of thing.

Now I have been given the task to do a similar thing using .NET C#,
unattended on_load functions which I cannot do using VBS as there are .NET
components involved and I haven't got a clue how to this. These will be run
on a web server at a remote data centre location.

Can anyone give me any pointers here on how/what I'm to do, how do I take
this forward?

Target system will be:
Windows Server 2003 Web Edition, NET 2.0, C#

Thanks guys,

Lee

Just thank your lucky stars that you're not trying to create Windows
services outside of Visual Studio. It was the devil's work in VB6...
