    Have you tried using a timer to activate your existing function that works - every 15 minutes?

      Yes definately, but the problem is i wrote above that i been able to perform these tasks only by a windows application,but its not feasible to run this windows application of server and a user session always logged in to make this application running contineously there, instead better solution would be to create a windows service which i can install on the server and which runs every 15 mins even user log off but the service works silently and do the required tasks, Am i able to make you understand the exact problem?
