?????

does anybody have a working example of the changeserviceconfig api call

Theres a C++ sample on MSDN, I think you'll have real trouble finding a VB one...Microsoft are of the opinion that VB developers should never be going this deep I think, since VB was never designed for any service oriented development. (I'll tell you what I think of that *&^%$!)

hope this helps.

unfortunatly i am not good enough to convert the C code
