running an exe file SQL server agent

Hi ,
I have an exe program that i do not want to be part of
the services however , i do want it to auto-start when the
server is rebooted.
it is possble to configure it as part of SQL server
Agent job ?
thks & rdgsYes,
Look up the xp_cmdshell command, and the SQL Agent 'Start
up Automatically when SQL Agent Starts' in schedule.

Whilst it is possible, it may not necessarily be desirable. What exactly
are you trying to do? Using the Startup folder in windows, or using the
'at' command, or some other software may be a better option.
