Automatic Update every 30 days

I have an existing database that I am using to create records.  The user clicks on a button to add records.  This method is dependent on the user to do this every thirty days.  

Can Access automatically run a query every thirty days?  I want the query to autorun whether a user has been in the database or not.   Can Access update the data in a database on its own?

Greetings Scotto13!

  If the query is placed in an mdb built solely to be launched and run your query

  Name a macro that launches the query "autoexec"
  Have the "autoexec" macro launch the query and then shut down the application on a good complete run
  Have Task Scheduler launch/open the mdb on your schedule

regards
