Vielen Dank!
I actually managed to make this work, in the sense that I actually managed to install an EXE created with Visual FoxPro, as a service.
Now, the next problem (sigh). We want this service to run all the time, independent of a particular user (that is, before login, after closing a session) - that was the idea of running as a service in the first place. However, when I close my session, Windows tries to close the program.
Do you know whether any special properties have to be set for the service? Such as running under a specific account or pseudo-account, etc.
