Hi, You can install the window service.It is not like webservices so it does not have any url.. Please read some stuff on google about window services.

Hi You can not call window service in any project because it is not like class library. I am not getting what are you doing with window service. Please explain what is is currently doing and what are you planning to do?

what am trying to do is i want to insert records into a sqlTable for that i created a method with 4 arguments in windows services class. inside that method i wrote code to insert those 4 arguments. i installed this windows service. from another project i want to call this method To insert records from a form i called that service like this
WindowsService1.Service1 winService = new WindowsService1.Service1(); winService.insertValues(txtcustId.Text, txtcustName.Text, txtcustPhone.Text, txtcustAddress.Text);here insertValues is my method inside windows service, where i wrote insert statement. is this correct way? when i tried to build it is giving below errorError 2 The type 'System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.ServiceProcess, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

Hi, Stop your service from services.msc and check weather you are still able to insert records into your sql table. Just check it and you will find your answer :)

Hi if you want to achieve this type of functionality than i suggest you to consider webservice.Using window service you will not achieve this. Moreover,there is no point to keep busy your server by making window service.

This error means there is some error in the code of your window service. You have not done any exception handling.Write Try/Catch block to catch the exception and log that error in event viewer or log file.

You are confusing web services and Windows services. I suggest you buy a book.

my code is like this in windows services class
protected override void OnStart(string[] args) { insertValues(3, "Naresh Kumar", "3658213641", "Begumpet, Hyderabad"); } public void insertValues(int custId, string custName, string custPhone, string custAdd) { string insertCommand = "Insert into CUSTOMER values ( " + custId + ",'" + custName + "','" + custPhone + "','" + custAdd + "')"; con.Open(); cmd = new SqlCommand(insertCommand, con); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); con.Close(); }when am trying run this service from computer Mangement is it displaying below alert "The service on local machine started and stopped. some services stopped automatically if they have no work to do for example the performance logs and alerts service." please help me out -

Hi Have you log your error in log file or somewhere else... Read error from there and post it. Also, Do not use window service for this task.

insertValue(...)has run. In general, windows services'OnStartmethod starts a thread/timer which continues to process until interupted by a Pause or Stop command. Whatever a "PL" is, he is an idiot, or you have misunderstood his request. -
i cant break my PL orders :(

Project Lead, sounds like a cretin who's just been promoted into management by virtue of warming the seat for X years and is out to show his minions who's boss.
