Hi,

You can do this operation with SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) package, which automate the whole Export to Excel task.

Then deploy that package using SQL Server Agent Jobs. This is a more neat and clean solution as I found.

Ref this code,
private void GetData()
{
DataTable dtTable = new DataTable();
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString);
conn.Open();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Your select query", conn);
SqlDataAdapter daTable = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
daTable.Fill(dt);
string attachment = "attachment; filename=flename.xls";
// Response.ClearContent();
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment);
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
string tab = "";
foreach (DataColumn dc in dt.Columns)
{
Response.Write(tab + dc.ColumnName);
tab = "\t";
}
Response.Write("\n");

int i;
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
{
tab = "";
for (i = 0; i < dt.Columns.Count; i++)
{
Response.Write(tab + dr[i].ToString());
tab = "\t";
}
Response.Write("\n");
}
Response.End();
}
