If you have MSDN, then just search for service and you will find articles
and sample code.  If you don't, then you can find most of the information
on Microsoft's web site.  Start with the following:

http://www.microsoft.com/msdn/sdk/platforms/doc/sdk/win32/sys/src/services.htm
http://www.microsoft.com/msdn/sdk/platforms/doc/sdk/win32/func/src/f11_6.htm

You can get sample code from:

http://www.microsoft.com/kb/softlib/mslfiles/HELSVC.EXE

Ignore the OLE stuff (unless you are interested) and look at service.h
and service.c.

Hope this helps.

Jason
