Hi! All,

I need to register a .exe file as a service. To register that file i need to set a path in the Environment Variable. I used SetEnvPath and RefreshEnvironment from the sample code downloaded from here this works perfectly fine. i then register the .exe file as a service thru the script, the service is not registering. Is what i am doing correct?? why is not the file getting registered. i use the following code to register the file.

LaunchAppAndWait("\"" + TARGETDIR ^ "myfile.exe" + "\""," /Service",WAIT) < 0

Plz.....HELP......

That application has to support the /Service switch and know what to do when it is present. It's not something that automatically comes free with Windows.
