That's a big question to put up here - we don't write code for people - you also don't give us much to go on, for example, what email server/client are you using ?

One way would be - write a standalone exe to :-

a) connect to the database using (ADO ?)
b) generate (for example) a datatable of email addresses etc you wish to mail - have a blank/dummy column for 'status' - be sure to keep a key value in the datatable so you can update the database later
c) for every row in the datatable, generate & send and email in whichever client you're using
d) update the database using the key and status from the datatable

you could use a cursor instead of a datatable.

Then you just use a scheduler or such to run the exe - obviously you should have reporting, diagnostics etc in there as well
