title: Triggering a SQL job from inside a VB .NET application
body: <p>I've searched similar topics looking for something closer to what I need, but I haven't had any luck yet. I'm working on a card ID import application, where I need to trigger a SQL job from the user's workstation to import the data into a different database. I did see one post about triggering a job locally from the command line on the local SQL server, but I need to see if I can do this remotely from inside the .NET application.</p>
  
  <p>I already have a connection to the SQL server so that I can import the user information into the photo ID database, but once they have been imported, I need to kick off the scheduled job to run so that it will complete the process.</p>
