Uninstalling a Windows Service on Win2003

dan
The service has been developed using VB.NET and VS.NET on an XP platform.

On the XP platform, when I install a new version of this service it starts
by
removing first the previous version, which is what I expect. Everything is
OK.

On a Win2003 platform when I want to install a new version of the same
service:
1. It does not remove the previous version
2. However, it interrupts installation because the service is already
installed
3. The service is not listed in the add/remove applet so I cannot remove it
from there.

Many thanks in advance for your help,
Dan
