Any suggestions? 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.
