Report Archiving Server...

Hello all,

I'm trying to figure out the best way to build a server that I can use
to archive reports on a scheduled basis. I have reports that will
need to be archived on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
I was thinking of using Windows task scheduling service for scheduling
the jobs and writing a report server that will accept requests via a
batch file fired by the scheduler.

Does this sound logical or is there a better way. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

    FWIW, I would do it a little different:

    1) A report server, like you mentioned, that accepts requests and create
    reports and archives them.
    2) A report request server, that requests reports based on client
    configurations
    3) A client app that interfaces with the report request server (#2) that
    allows the user to customize the configuration.
