hi, i have created a windows service that executes external program,
then force that program to show window. this, i have to set "Allow
service to interact with desktop". this of course, works in Windows XP.

but in Windows 2003, the program runs, but i can't make it show. is
there a setting in win2k3 i should set?

AFAIK, "Interact with Desktop" no longer exists under Win'2003 Server.

You'll have to create a /separate/ User Interface application and
communicate between the two.
