Out of interest, what happens if you set the ALLUSERS

Hello again
all,
I'm having real
trouble installing and starting a service, I have made a simple installer that
just installs one file and tries to install it as a service and start it... I
get the standard error message when installing "Failed to start service "My
Service""
Here is
Control(,Name=WSQ,Action="">StartServices: Service: WSQError
1920. Service 'WSQ' (WSQ) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient
privileges to start system services.
As you can see the
"Executing op" statement for install servies is missing.
Kind
regards
Simon
Tople
good to know what other tools are out there as I am sure
they will come in useful at some point.
Kind Regards
Simon Topley.
