I need to run a vb.net or aspx.net file every 10 seconds.

[Steve Jacobs]

Hi,

I need to run a vb.net or aspx.net file every 10 seconds. The Task Scheduler
in Windows 2003 Server can only do it every 1 minute at the minimum, but I
need it every 10 seconds. Is it possible to write a small program in VB.NET
that would run in the background without using much resources, and request a
vb.net or aspx file every 10 seconds? Could you show me how to write such
code? or give me good directions?

Thank you.
Steve.

ASP.NET wasn't made for this kind of thing.
I suggest you look into using a Windows Service to handle such background
tasks reliably.

Here's more information on Windows Services:
