Hi Gary,

Writting Windows Service in Win32 is a complex job, because you have to
deal with inter-thread communication and other stuff. In .Net, this is
pretty simple, VS2005 provides a "Windows Service" project type which you
can create and use.

You may read the following articles as a start:
"Windows Services: New Base Classes in .NET Make Writing a Windows Service
Easy"

If you meet any further problem, please feel free to post, thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
