You need to create the service that does NOT need data to call and in that call access database, get the data you need and then call whatever you need with said data.

I have created a desktop application and used below code System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://localhost:2042/Admin/EmailDatabase/Sendeamil");
to redirect url in browser it will help to reach the method at particular time .It's working after clicking that shortcut of executable file but after scheduling and attachment of the shortcut file not working the same.
