    Resolved [RESOLVED] Error starting Service

    Using the SRVINSTW.Exe I made my utility into a Service but when I am trying to start it I am encountering the error below. It works fine when I run it as not a Service. What could be the cause of this?

    Re: Error starting Service

    there are some limitations, as to what can run as a service, i have used srvany, utility by microsoft with success to run exes as services, and have encountered that error with an incorrect path to the exe
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    I wrongly followed the instruction, it is now working, I am also using srvany.exe.
