You need to research Inter Process Communication (IPC).

IPC can be achieved by using remoting with an IPC channel (or even TCP
channel if you wanted them to communicate across machine boundaries).

I believe .NET 2.0 and above also included IO methods for named pipes, which
is another way.

I'm sure WCF has classes to replace all of the above also, but I've not
investigated it.

Plenty out there to work with anyway :-)

I'm guessing you're talking about Windows services and not Web
Services, but I'll respond just in case. For a web service to
communicate with another web service it takes nothing more than adding
a reference to the other web service from the right+click menu on the
solution explorer.

Thanks,
