My C# programmer came to me today and he has a program built that sends reports on demand. It has a scheduler so that users can request a report sent to them once per day at 5:00. It's all done in C#. But he asked me if there was a non-manual way to do it with SQL. I am not aware of any functions that would easily accept this. I can imagine manual ways of doing it but neither of us wants to go there. I thought I'd check here to see if anyone knows of any functions new in 2008 R2 or anything like that.

Thanks for your help!

You could make an SSIS package that could be scheduled as a job to fire off at 5:00.
