I'm asking on behalf of a friend (largely because it's also my 500th message on CP) if anyone knows how to install these from code.

Hi,
I try to develop C# service application.
One of the component used interacts to a GUI windows application.
It's a small application but still has GUI.
Clearly, to run my C# application as a service, unless this external exe can run also in service mode, it does not work.
Is it impossible to install a GUI windows application to windows service? or is there a way to wrap it as a service component?
Thanks for your advice.
Best,
Ken

In the C world, this is a good reference: Interacting with the User in a Service.
For .NET (in Introduction to Windows Service Applications) MSDN says, "The Windows Service classes supported by the .NET Framework do not support interaction with interactive stations, that is, the logged-on user. The .NET Framework also does not include classes that represent stations and desktops. If your Windows Service must interact with other stations, you will need to access the unmanaged Windows API." So the above link (for the C) world should get you started.

The site offers the Windows 2003 Server DDK on CD; it says the Win2K DDK is included. http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/ddk/winddk.mspx[^]. It's free, but they want $15 shipping!

I just bought that. There's no copy protection, serial number, or product key with it. The one time a pay for something Microsoft, I didn't need to. I feel used.

Aw, cheer up. At least next time Windows crashes you won't have to hunt it down and download it to install it again. I'd call that a bargain...

Nevermind. Server 2003 does it. Anybody want to be certified by me?

I got the CD for Windows Server 2003 when I upgraded my copy of Visual Studio .NET using the $30 upgrade special MS had a while back. Naturally, I installed it right away. Now, the catch is the back of the CD sleeve says "Illegal without a separate license from MS."
Oh great, so I may as well be using warez. Anyway, since I already have the disc, if I just purchased like a 5CAL pack for $130 would that cover me or is a CAL not technically the same thing?
Any thoughts are welcome.

A CAL is a Client access license, not a license to install the server itself. I believe that the distribution of Win2K03 is intended to serve as your development platform, and using it to run your organization would be illegal.

That's was I figured, but I wanted to make sure.

Well, this particular copy is for my home/development use. However, I'm trying to start a home-based business with it too. Even though, Win2K03 would still be used for development when that happens.
They sure do make this stuff complicated, eh?

Hi,
I would like to know if there is any software that would split the voice part and the music from the 'mp3' files. Even if not in MP3, is it posible with other file formats as audio CDs etc.
Thanks in advance

Don't think so. Many so-called 'karaoke' converters work by assuming that the voice is central in the stereo, and eliminating accordingly, although I haven't got the first clue as to how.

Its ok, but is there anything that would allow me to jump from my seat and say 'IT WORKS'??

How do I change the folder that windows looks for my Documents and Settings?
I have set up my Domain, but I want a non-domain (same username) account to have the same profile. I changed the My Documents already but I want to do this
BestSnowman.NEWMAN <-- Domain Account
C:\Documents and Settings\BestSnowman.NEWMAN.000 <-- Change that to
C:\Documents and Settings\BestSnowman
Does this make sense? How would I do that?

So I figured out how to do it and it didn't work well for what I wanted it to do.

Can I ask two questions.
1. How did you do it (presumably an HKEY_USERS\.yoursid setting?
2. What did you want that meant it didn't work well?
I found that from 2000 onwards some apps would seem to remember when I used the common dialog which folder I was last in. However, for some of the apps I've written and sold, I got around that by having my app init the folder string in the OFN structure....

It was a little more nested than that but pretty much it.

It wouldn't logon with the profile and created a new one. Luckily I had backed up the settings before hand.

Hi,
I want to be able to initiate a suspend, and also set the time for wake-up, from software under windows XP (preferably using C). Can anyone point me in the right direction??
Thanks,
Will

An application may use SetSuspendState to transition the system from the working state to the standby (sleep), or optionally, hibernate (S4) state.
BOOLEAN SetSuspendState(<br />
BOOL Hibernate,<br />
BOOL ForceCritical,<br />
BOOL DisableWakeEvent<br />
);

Well, I've run out of options on this server, and I'm probably going to re-install Win2K Server again. I don't have a clue how AD could lose it's SAM database and all information about the domain, so I have no idea how to restore it. Previous installations have left behind Admin and User folders full of goodies that I've been able to save elsewhere, and I've worked out a dodge for recovering lost email address books. I'm stumped, though, on a method for saving and recovering actual emails. I've got all the dbx files, but I can't find any way to trick Outlook Express into exporting or importing emails without having Outlook or Exchange installed. I have a lot of products installed that I'll have to reinstall afterwards, and their registration codes are contained in those emails, so I'd really like to preserve them. Is there any way to do this, short of firing up binhex and searching the hard way?
