Is it necessary for the data in table2 to appear only delayed? I usually try to avoid all scheduled actions and try to use a "push" or "pull" model where data is replicated / generated when needed or when it is generated by the last step. So to replicate (a part of the) data into a 2nd table, I'd usually go for triggers, or try to avoid having the data duplication alltogether. (But obviously, I don't know what you're doing, this is just my opinion based on a feeling that the underlying problem you're solving might be solved in a more elegant way.) cheers -- vbi -- Pzat!
