How to create a webservice

[ken_rgr]

Hi Guys

I need to create a webservice which works in the back ground.

I have an XML file which has nearly 10000 records.

I need to dump the elements in this xml file to database every one hour.

For this I want to create a webservice which works in the back ground executes itself

every one hour on its own to transfer the data in the xml file to database.

I am a newbee. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

If you can provide some code that will be great.

My project is running on Asp.net1.1 anc C# , and Database is Sqlserver2005.

Thanks in advance

Web services aren't really designed to "execute themselves." They work like Web sites: they receive a request for some data and return it via http. Why not simply create a console application and schedule it to run as a Windows scheduled task?

Hi Phil

Thanks for your suggestion.
Is it possible to get some code example for console application.
I never created console applications before.
