Re: Re: Check-it as service on Windows NT

Sorry Mark

not acceptable as NetDDE is really not that robust and we have mission
critical alarms on the base PC that MUST be paged.

So, to solve the problem:

1) how about one of the third party applications that turns a program into a
service?

2) I am surprised that you have not been asked this before, as in a real
process plant the possibility of killing a mission critical routine is of
serious concern. How have your other clients solved the problem?

3) can check it be run in some stealth mode (not as a service) that does not
display a window / icon ?? (see my description below)

4) Which of your competitors has solved this problem and where may I contact
them ?

BTW your message server apparently does run as a service, or at least in
stealth mode as it is not visible when we are running Citect as the WinNT
shell (i.e. without explorer and its' task bar). Unfortunately CheckIt is
visible as a window on the desktop

regards

Bruce
