That worked great. I did have to put this in:
and make my mail line look like this:
It seems that using the $message twice confised things, so changing the first one to $mmessage fixed that problem.

My next plan is to get the server to run this at a preestablished time using task manager. Do you see a problem with this, or is there a better way. I only want it to run once per day.

Thanks for all your help, its great.

If you want to run in once a day, then that would be fine, if you are on a Linux server, a Cron job would be best.

I'm running on a windows server with IIS. I did try to run it using task manager on my test machine (windows XP w/IIS), telling it to run a php file only opened the file for editing at the designated time. This is my first time doing this, how would I get this to run at a designated time using task manager?

Ok, I did some research and got this to work. For people who don't know how to set up a cronjob in Windows/IIS, here is how I did it.

First I created a .bat file called cron.bat, created it in notepad and saved it as that file name, here is the code:

timemail.php is the file I wanted to run. C:\PHP is the location of my php.exe file that will run it. The only way I could get it to work was by putting it in my web root. I don't know if this is a security problem or not, but i'm running this on my network intranet server so I can get away with it. I then set up a schedule to run the cron.bat file at a specified time. my timemail.php file pulls data from my calendar and sends an email to designated people stating what events are occurring for that day, i let it run at like 4am before everyone gets to work. Thats it. I thought this was going to be real hard, but it was quite easy. Fearing the unknown is no fun.

Thanks for ya'lls help with getting this running, I really appreaciate it.
