How to get DMO to schedule a Stored Procedure as a Job?

I have what is a simple task. Using C# I want to schedule a SQL Server
Stored Procedure to run at a specified date & time.
I've seen plenty of examples of running SQL code like this but none about
running a stored procedure. The closest I've come is this:

Can anyone point me to an example that would help me accomplish what I'm
trying to do?

www.mwtech.comHi,
Below is an example I knocked together of calling SQLDMO from C#. It's
by no means perfect but it should be enough to get you started. You'll
probably need to clean up some formatting as the action of posting
probably ruined all of it. Just a few things to note:
1) You will need to reference the appropriate DLL for SQLDMO in your C#
project
2) You can add a "using SQLDMO;" statement to your code if you don't
want to prefix SQLDMO objects with "SQLDMO".
Hope this helps a bit

public static void createNewJob()
{
/* Variable declaration */
SQLDMO.SQLServer theServer; //Object representing the connection to a
DB server
SQLDMO.Job jobToBeCreated; //Object representing the job to be created
on the server
SQLDMO.JobSchedule scheduleForCreatedJob; //Schedule of job to create
SQLDMO.JobStep stepForCreatedJob; //What the job will do
/*
* Process done in this order:
*
* 1) Connect to the database server
* 2) Create a Job object representing the job we want to add
* 3) Create a JobStep object representing what we want this job to do
(e.g. execute some T-SQL)
* 4) Create a JobSchedule object representing when we want this job
executed
* 5) Add the JobStep and JobSchedule objects to the Job object
* 6) Add the Job object to the jobs currently defined on the server
*
* NOTE: We need to connect to the server first because some methods
used to define a job require that
* we be connected to a database server

theServer = new SQLDMO.SQLServerClass();
theServer.LoginSecure = false; //Use SQL Server Authentication
theServer.Login = "sa"; //Change to whatever SQL Server login you want
theServer.Password = ""; //Change to the password associated with the
user set previously
theServer.Connect("N-0U9LWEXW762ZV\\NATHAN", theServer.Login,
theServer.Password);
jobToBeCreated = new SQLDMO.JobClass();
jobToBeCreated.Name = "Example Job";
theServer.JobServer.Jobs.Add(jobToBeCreated);
stepForCreatedJob = new SQLDMO.JobStepClass();
stepForCreatedJob.Name = "Stored procedure execution";
stepForCreatedJob.StepID = 1;
stepForCreatedJob.Command = "exec sp_monitor"; //Change stored proc as
appropriate
scheduleForCreatedJob = new SQLDMO.JobScheduleClass();
scheduleForCreatedJob.Name = "Example schedule";
scheduleForCreatedJob.Enabled = true;
jobToBeCreated.JobSchedules.Add(scheduleForCreatedJob);
/*
* Configure a "one-shot" (i.e. the job will execute once {and only
once})
*/
scheduleForCreatedJob.Schedule.ActiveStartDate = 20060513; //Equivalent
to 05/13/2006 in dd/mm/yyyy
scheduleForCreatedJob.Schedule.ActiveStartTimeOfDay = 233000;
//Equivalent to hh:mm:ss
scheduleForCreatedJob.Schedule.ActiveEndDate = 20070513; //Value
irrelevant as the job is "one-shot"
scheduleForCreatedJob.Schedule.ActiveEndTimeOfDay = 230000; //Value
irrelevant as the job is "one-shot"
scheduleForCreatedJob.Schedule.FrequencyType =
SQLDMO.SQLDMO_FREQUENCY_TYPE.SQLDMOFreq_OneTime; //One shot
jobToBeCreated.JobSteps.Add(stepForCreatedJob);
jobToBeCreated.StartStepID = 1; //Step ID for the step we defined
previously
jobToBeCreated.ApplyToTargetServer("(local)"); //Job runs on server
running the SQL Server Agent
theServer.DisConnect();
}|||Nate,
Thank you so much! I will review your code and see if I can adapt it my
specific needs!!
