hi folks,

i want to add a windows service to desktop as a shortcut.

let use say i installed mysql. to start mysql i can use mysqld command or provided icon in start ment or from administrative tools>services.

but i want to place that service on desktop as a shortcut.

anybody has answer.

Why don't you simply copy the link to your service in the start menu to the desktop? After all that's a shortcut too!!

sorry dude, my service is not eithere in the start menu or in the quick launch bar. if at all, if it is there i wont ask this question.
