Can anyone tell me how to create a application wich can run as Windows
Service?
I got to know that it is not possible in VB6 but VB.NET support it.

Is there anyway to get around it by using some other program to run my
application as service?

PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Hi Cash,

Yes, you can make most applications run as a service by using a
"wrapper" program. Here are links to a couple of wrappers that are
free for personal use:

If you want to write a service from scratch, you can use VB.Net or C#
or J# in Visual Studio 2003, starting from the Windows Service
template.

BTW, this question is way off-topic for this newsgroup, which is for
Visual Basic for Applications hosted in Word and has nothing at all to
do with services.
