slow global.asa execution

[John Beschler]

Why are you running this in global.asa anyway? There has
to be at least 3 or 4 other BETTER ways to do this.

The easiest way would be to create a VB script file that
accomplishes the same thing (the code would be wuite
similiar to what you have now) and schedule that VB file
to run at 10:00 am every Friday morning using task
scheduler.

HTH,

Unfortenately, I haven't my own server, so I have shgared hosting, and I
cannot acceess scheduler. Also, my audience is from diferent part of Planet,
so I can't do in 4 AM.

But, thanks for trying to help me.

OK. Here's another option.

1. Create an APS page that accomplishes your mailing.
2. On someother computer (can be anywhere) schedule
Internet explorer (or your favorite web browser) to run
when you need your mailing to happen with the ASP page
created in step 1 as the page to load.

I.E. "C:\program files\internet
explorer" "http://www.yourserver.com/yourpage.asp"


The global.asa should be used to initialize your ASP
environment, not to run code.

HTH,
