Hi,

Is it possible to have your Glpro app. continue running when a user logsoff
and a new user logson?

I have been told I should install the program as a service, can anyone give
me any pointers
on how best to do this, and if it will work.

My app monitors the LPT port on XP.

Regards

John

You could try something like htis:

(use the NT instructions, not rhe Win95)

Here is the Microsoft page on SRVANY.EXE:

Thanks John,

I'll give it a go over the next few days.

Easy to setup,
This link shows the reg settings a bit better.
