Hi,

I am trying to open old VS2002 solution (windows service) under Windows 2003
SP1 but it crashes every time. However I couldn't create new blanc windows
service solution too, same issue.
Creating simple Windows Forms application works fine. Could you please help?

Thanks!

Lenny,

         In framework 1.0 service pack 3 there is a fix to a buffer overflow
problem when calling com components.  Since you did not post any code I can
tell if that applies here.

Why can't I simply create new Service using VS2002 under Windows 2003 SP1?
Can you?
