Not clear what you want. Have a time saved in database. Do you want to show an alert when that time is reached?

If your application knows what day of the month you want the alert to show on and your application is one where it will be started and stopped daily then simply check what day of the month it is to what day you wanted the alert every time the application is started. If its greater than or equal to the day you wanted, show the alert.

If however, your program will be started and then not stopped for months you would have to program into say one of you programs update methods some code that checks the day of the month and do the same as above. An alternative method is to use a timer but those tend to be used for short, few millisecond periods of time. Setting one month in milliseconds seems a little ridiculous... :P

Earlier I could not get what you tried to ask but on second thought, it sounds like you are in a need of Windows Service!

Sample:
Simple Windows Service which sends auto Email alerts[^]

MSDN: Details about Windows Service:
