create process not working correctly from a service on windows xp

I am trying to write a program which opens a notepad application on windows XP machine. I have used the createprocess() function to acheive this. If i open the command prompt and run my program, the note pad application opens up without any problem.

I tried run the same application as a service it displays a part of the GUI for note pad. I have passed on "winsta0\default" as the desktop with the startup parameters to the createprocess application. The user who is running the service is same as the loggedon user.

I tried to run the same executable on a win2k machine as a service, the notepad application opens without any problems. Can anyone help me out to solve this problem.

The code looks like this and the input to this would be the application I would be launching ie notepad.exe.

I would be thankful to anyone who would helpme out with this.
