Have a query run at specific times

Please be patient I am a noobie
We have a Query created in Query Analyzer that we would like to run nightly.
How do we get this query to run on a schedule and update tables?
Hi
Wrong newsgroup. This is the group for data replication.
Look in BOL for "jobs".
If you want to use Enterprise Manager, you can create and schedule a job, it
is under SQL Server Agent.

|||What you need to create is a 'Job'. This is available under Management, SQL
Server Agent, Jobs and there are plenty of details n Books-On-Line (BOL).
Basically right click the jobs node, select new job and the rest is pretty
intuitive as long as you ensure the SQL Server Agent is started and
scheduled to restart on bootup. Please post back after giving it a go.
