Scheduled Task on SQL Azure

Question

I actually search for a system to do a task every day at a precise time. This task is to delete some entries in the database. I have a Web Role and a Sql Azure database. I found some tutorial but nothing very effective and simple. Can somebody help me ?

Thanks a lot.

If you are open to using a service to do this scheduling of tasks, an alternate solution to purchasing your own worker role is to use Cotega which supports this functionality. For example, you can schedule it to launch stored procedure on regular intervals.

Full disclosure, I work on this service.
