Each windows service have to implement a standard interface with the default methods (Visual Studio provides a template - have a look there). If you don't want to provide a certain method, you can either remove it there or don't enter code to these procedures.

I dont find the method to grey out the startup type dropdown in the service panel.if u have clue just give me some code or link where i can refer to solve?

There is no option to grey out the dropdown - you have to remove or disable each method separetely - look at the class that represents the service interface. The VS template provides empty procedures for each of the 4 methods.

Actually you can turn on and off each method like (pause, continue, etc.) via class properties instead of removing the interfaces from code. All about creating services can be found at:
