Automated daily sales report?

Is there a way to have a daily report generated through the data report utility exported to a csv? I was going to generate a conosle application that would call the database and schedule it through the task scheduler, but figured I'd ask in case there was something already built in to do this. There are a couple of reports that our client ask asked for, the items to be shipped being first on their list.

Thanks a bunch.

No, there's no automation that I'm aware of for the data client.

A "Page Scheduler" would be a nice addition to AC7 though. Or at least a command-line interface to the data client. Then it could be scheduled locally instead of the console.

I have some processes I need to automate too, just haven't gotten around to messing with it yet.

I've heard rumors there are some AC7 modules that fire automatically within the server-side code on a semi regular schedule as traffic hits the site. It'd be nice to know what those are at some point so I could hook in some automation on my own.

OK, fair enough. I'll just write up a console application that I'll schedule in windows scheduler, and have it do it's thing. Thanks for the response.
