Application for Start and Stop NT services...

For a better history...
I cant use "NET START" and
"NET STOP" commands.. ok ?

Why can't you use NET START and NET STOP?

Anyway, to do it with the WINDOWS API:

1) Use OpenSCManager:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/services_9r1h.asp

2) Call ControlService():

Hope it helps

>>Creating a Simple Win32 Service in C++

Unfortunately, this document is no longer available via MSDN...

Hmm... I am running January 2001 library and it is there...

Well, I meant the online version :o)

Hi !

This sample works fine for stop services...
But for Start service is not only change the STOP to START... but I found another example...

But this your example was good for help me...

Thanks

Sorry, you are right - you'd have to use 'StartService()' instead of 'ControlService()' in the above sample in order to adapt it to start a service...
