basically I need access to the form for 2 reasons, (1). to view some 
infor from time to time, and (2). because its ported from a normal APP. 
all the logic is still in the form, and I was not allocated any time to 
re-write the program properly as a service ! hate that !

I will try your idea tho, it might work ok.
