    You need to set up a Cron Job for that ;)

    Ask your host if Cron Jobs are allowed. If so, ask them to help you with your script.

    Hope that helps!

    P.S.: Actually, someone else has just posted about Cron Jobs here. I thought you might be interested to know ;)

    Just use a remote access to your database, in that way you wont need to think about your query
    its like editing your whole database like you were writing in a MS Excel Spreadsheet..
