We have a program that we need to be running all of the time. It checks for
audit files and then uploads them into the database. I would assume that I
could create a custom service that uses this .exe and would automatically
run when the machine was booted up. I can not find any information on
creating a custom service. We are using Windows 2003 Server.

Any ideas or other ways to do this?

Thanks,
Fred
