keep a program running

Using VB.NET 2003 I want to keep a program running and waiting for users'
input without using a Form that loads at program execution.
Can I do it using just one Module or what?
Is this possible or must I create a service running in the background??

Any help appreciated,
Thanks in advance

Since this group is really for VB6 and earlier, you might want to post to
groups devoted exclusively to .net programming on the microsoft news server,
named such as:

news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...dotnet.general
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...t.languages.vb

As Randy said, find a .Net group. But I'm just curious: what sort of user input,
if there is no form showing?
