Windows service

54 New Member
Please can someone help me with this? I'm using vb.net 08 and and sql server 08 and i want to display information from the database to the user the moment the system logs on the desktop. E.g. Displaying informatiom to the user time to time, the total number of items that has been stored in the database. I've heard windows service but do not know how to implement it. A snippet of code is appreciated. Thanks.
