Anybody have sample code to create a service from VB.NET?

I have gotten this far:
declare function OpenSCManager & CreateService in "advapi32.dll"
Ohandle = OpenSCManager(...
SHandle = CreateService(...
error = GetLasError( )

I am getting an "ERROR 126 The specified module could not be found."

I' not sure what "specified module" this error is pointing to???

Help????
 
Your GetLastError is wrong

Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Marshal.GetLastError

Here's some service articles for you:
