Handling error results
Beautiful!!! that is what I was looking for... I did not realize I had to specify the handle to LoadLibrary... Thanks xwb! -
Handling error results

I am current using strcmp(_strupr(argv[1]),"test"), but is considered unsafe, and is suggested I use _strupr_s. What would be the proper code to use _strupr_s, because strcmp expects char, and _strupr_s returns errno_t... -

Windows service started accidently
I have a windows service that I was wondering if it is possible to display a custom error dialog if a user attemts to start the service exe from the command line by accident.
