    Hi, I have to run a C# windows service in .net in which i have to generate popup message box reminder every one hour. i dont want to run it as a application, as each and every time we have to run it manually daily. i cant find a message box in windows service. can anybody please give me an idea of how to do it in an automatic service so that no manual process should be done. once they switch on the system, the service should start automatically and should generate popups once an hour. Pls help. Thanks and Regards Vijayarajan.V :)

      Erhm, too bad... You have to find another solution... A Windows Service does not support a GUI. You may want to develop a diffrent application which does support GUI (WinForms app.) and start start using the Process.Start() method from your service.

        Maybe, just maybe, you can program something like a NET SEND command ? That shows 'like' a messagebox.
