Service App, Form App, or Console App?

[Chris S]

I need to creat a small application which does the following 1 time per
month:

*Call a SQL stored procedure
*Send out emails using the resulting recordset from the SQL results

I was thinking of creating a small console application, and then creating a
scheduled job in Windows to launch it once a month.

Does this sound right?

That is what I would do. I typically create services for applications
which need to run continuously in the background, form applications for
applications which require user inputs, and console applications for
tasks like you just described. :-)

Thanks Dan.
