Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
We are running a server with SQL server express which has the recovery model set to simple.<br />
Is it possible to shrink the log file from a batch file?. Id like setup a schedule to shrink the log file within task scheduler since i believe our version of MS SQL server express doesnt have the management jobs to setup tasks that the full versions of SQL server have.<br />
<br />
Thanks
