Run app on server without stopping

I have an application that is on a server running. The way I have it setup is I put it on the Windows Scheduler to run at certain times. We now need to run it constantly on the server. I change the code to put in a loop until I pause or stop it. One issue I have found is that I can kick it off but when I close out of my remote session the application stops.

How do I keep my application to keep running even after I sign out of RDP?

Thanks.

Depending on what your program actually does, you could turn it into a windows service.

Thanks guys. Looks like I have to figure out web services.

I will post if I have more questions.

Web services are not windows services!!!

My bad, windows services. Thanks!

By the way, if you put a busy wait into your loop on a server side app, the sys admin is probably going to skin you alive.
