    [RESOLVED] Background application

    How could i make sort of a "background application"? Just a personal application that monitors another program that i have written.

    Basically i need to know how to make a C# application without a user interface (Console, or windows form).

    Thank you.

    You could make either one and hide it or make a windows service.

    Whats against having it in the system tray so you can switch it on or off as needed.
