A cronjob means, it will help to run a programme or set of programme in particular intervels. Its possible in all Unix like environment. First of all tell me which programme you would like to execute and in what intervals. Then only we can define a cronjob.

Your administrator should be able to give you information specific to the system your service is running on.

yes, you can use the cron in Unix . but i assume vb is visual basic? (or is it something else? ) . You need something to run your vb class, just like you need java to run java classes.
