It seems that making this a web application would be good here becuase several groups within this company X can then share this information. But since it will take so long to get the results, I'm wondering if there is some sort of way using servlets or whatever that I can have this job kick off at maybe midnight on Friday night so that all the data will be freshly available on Monday morning when it would be needed. I've considered maybe using a cron job to fire off a Perl script to do all the work, and then load the database with the data that would be replaced each week. But, I'd be interested in knowing if I could have it setup some slick way with Struts/Servlets/etc. Thanks, Andy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: struts-user-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: struts-user-help@jakarta.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: struts-user-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: struts-user-help@jakarta.apache.org
