Cronjob in Unix

Hi There,

I want to run a shell script as a cronjob. I dont want to go to the cronfile and give the details. Is their any way of running the script as a cronjob from within the script.I just wanted to know, whether can I build a wrapper script around the main script that runs the main script as a cron job. If, yes, please give me a snippet of how to do it?

Thanx in advance
