windows services

[Guest]

Hi,
i created this killer windows service, well it works
any way now the people that will be using it want to use parameters
when starting the service, and have default parameter if the service is
started automaticly. could you please tell me how to find an article that
explains how to acheive these goals. you couls respond to my email address
wich is (e-mail address removed)
thank you so much

why not just have the windows service read its configuration from a config
file. Then, you wouldn't need parameters.

Off the top of my head, I don't know of a way to start the service with
parameters. There may be one... I just don't know it
