How to raise an event from my windows application to my windows service?

Hi,

I'm an experienced vb .net developer in windows forma. Now I'm trying
to develop a windows service and I would like to know if it's possible
to raise an event from a windows application developed by me to a
windows service developed by me. I would like to do something like,
when a user changes something inmy application I would like to fire an
event to my windows service and make a log. Is this possible?

If I'm not clear please make me know.

Regards,
Filipe Marcelino

Hi Ken,

that's not exactly what I want to do and I think that's not suitable
because I will have many events, so I will fill the event log with
'garbage', because that information only matters to me. I want to raise
an event that only my service catch.
