Advise on querying a database daily

I am implementing an application that is looking into another System's database (DBF). I need to query out new orders that have been put in daily. What is the best way to handle this situation? Should I write a service or have a trigger setup in MSDE? I just need to do a simple SELECT statement that grabs orders between a date range and update my SQL database (MSDE). I am not looking for specific code examples, just a solution.

What are my choices?

Thanks,

JasonWindows Scheduled Task is my preference. You could use SQL Tasks as well, I just don't like them.|||Lets say I do use the Windows Scheduled Task what type of project would it be since it does not have an interface?|||I usually just use VBS and then a COM callable .net component. The nice thing about SQL Tasks is that it will just run SQL.|||I have a question about SQL Tasks. I am running MSDE and I do have SQL Server Agent. I am using an Access project (adp) to manage my database. I do not see a utility to take advantage of SQL Server Agent/scheduling jobs. Do you have any advice on what I could use to generate the T-SQL so I can use SQL Server Agent?
