You can start with a real simple DOS script by just putting the iSQL command that you usually run from the command prompt into a file with the extension .bat like mysqlscript.bat, then you can run the mysqlscript.bat from the command line by just typing the script name and hitting the return key. Once you have that working you can schedule the mysqlscript.bat file. You can also redirect the output from the iSQL command using the > character like this “isql command, command, … > c:tempmysqlfile.out” which will provide the output you are after. There are many DOS programming video tutorials on YouTube that should get you started.
