Hey Jay!

Yess if you see a sql file in your system that means your job is complted.
Now when you have scheduled your job to be done only once in a hour so it
would be done again after 1 hr. So be patient. Or if you need to check
increase by selecting minutes more frequently.

Congratulations ! atlast you achieved it.

BTW are u in Bangalore by any chance?
