Its not you, but the user that the service runs under.  By default, this is
the SYSTEM user, which does not have many rights.  Try changing the
configuration of the service to a user with more rights.

I do have rights to my pc, but it must be something else, because I managed 
to get a simple service running earlier this afternoon, but now I have made 
my main program I am getting the error.
I have tried commenting everything out so it appears to be the same as 
earlier this afternoon, but still getting an error.

its the old windows services permissions issue.
All you need to do is run the service as someone with administrator rights, 
or atleast with read access to the folder where the ini file is stored, and 
you should be ok.

Hi

I am creating a new windows service for checking if some specific programs 
are running. When the service starts I want to read in a ini file with a 
list of programs to look for, but I am getting an Error 5 Access Denied when

is starts.

Can you read of text file for a service program and if so were should it be 
stored to be read? I've tried it under the WinNT and System32 and C: but 
still am getting the error? Running on Win2k.

Regards
