Actually i was looking for background process to deliver mails if certain condition met in database so i posted a question last week and got reply from one of our group member suggested me to go to Windows services and am really thankful to him.
Unfortunatly I never worked with windows services so i created a small service and installed it without any trouble. But i am not able to start it. When am trying to start its giving be alert box saying "This service has been started and stopped. Some service stop automatically if they have no work to do."
But i have created the service with timer to trigger every 30 sec to write an entry to a database table.
Looks like i cannot start the service at all. Also i tried to debug it but i could not find my service.exe in the list to attach since it is not running. {instead i found explorer.exe which is new and from the same path my service.exe exists. But physically explorer.exe is not existing in that folder)
please some one help me in fixing this. Am i missing something?
Thanks in advance Renu

I solved this problem with the help of other group members and like to share the solution in case someone need it.
I just added code to create new thread in my OnStart method. It helps the service stay running and avoid stopping without doing anything.
I hope this may be helpful to few entry level .Net programmers.

When a graph is drawn, the focus is kept on the actual underlying competing figures that constitute the graph. Sometimes it is difficult to make assumptions just by looking at these graphs. When looking at a geographical map of data you immediately see exactly where things are happening. This article presents a .NET geographical mapping solution that will illustrate a fairly simple way of implementing these maps.
