The app will print a bunch of reports once a week (at a set time). I think it would be better to have the app working as a service but I don't know how to create a service. So, it would have to be a regular EXE. I am scheduled to talk to the IT regarding the credentials under which the application will run. Provided, IT will have no problem with this, any gotches? (I know the the app should not have any message boxes or visual notification since nobody will see them. And I will send all error or other exception messages via email). But I am mostly concern about the Timer control and how well it will work if I call it, say every hour. Or every couple of hours.
