title: How to create a cron job on windows to call a MySQL stored procedure
body: <p>I am trying to create a cron job on Windows to call a MySQL stored procedure.  The destination of this job is a unix box however I am currently in a Windows 7 environment.  I have found a Windows tool that uses the exact same syntax as unix' cron, which can be found at <a href="http://www.nncron.ru/" rel="nofollow">http://www.nncron.ru/</a> - I am using the nnCron LITE version.  I can make this tool do simple things such as open an application etc however have hit a wall trying to call an SP.    </p>
  
  <p>The version on MySQL is 5.07 therefore MySQL events are not an option.  Hopefully someone can think of another option, or has used nnCron, or has dome this using a different tool?</p>
