Hello everyone, this is my first post on this forum! Glad to be here.

First, i want to appologize if my question was already answered, but i tried searching for "periodically", which didn't give me much to work with, so I decided to ask here.

I am creating a simple web site that does some statistical calculations, and allows the users to see this data in form of tables, graphs, etc.
The data itself needs to be collected every hour or so, by getting it from other sources, like other web pages, services, etc.

My question is, how do i make my web page "do stuff" every hour (scheduled), if it only "does stuff" when a user opens a web page with his browser?
I hope you understand what I need.. If no one opens the page for hours, no data would be collected, and the statistics will be wrong...
Is there a way to achieve this scheduled execution on my ASP.NET website?

Thank you, and i appologize once more ...

Go to the complete details ...
