    Sending Automatic Notification Reminder Emails to Submit an InfoPath Form to SharePoint Form Library

    I created a Status Report form that submits to a SharePoint Form Library once a month.  Once a month – a couple of days before the form is due to be submitted – I want SharePoint to send out a reminder.  Then the day that the form is due, I want to send out another reminder, but only for the people who have not submitted the form that month already.  I would like the workflow to somehow be able to check the names of the people who should submit the form somehow – can it check a list of people in SharePoint and compare it to the list of people who have submitted their workflow for a given month in order to determine who has and who has not submitted their report in order to send reminders to only those people?
     
    I know how to create a workflow using SharePoint Designer – but I’m not proficient using VS 2008.

    instead of a workflow, why dont you create a utility that will do these things for you, and schedule the utility to run on those days

     Okay - but I don't know anything about running a utility?  Where would this utility run?  How do I go about creating a utility?
