Hi.

Powerbuilder does not create applications that can directly run as windows services. You can take a look at Topwiz Software - PBNIServ (topwizprogramming.com) (PBNIServ) which is a third party tool for that.

What do you mean by standard Windows application with the frame? You are searching how to create an mdi windows application or something else?

Andreas.

No problem, Rolnad from TopWiz has a solution on his website that we have used for years successfully.

Hi Pawel;

  I've used this free software for over a decade to run PB Apps as an O/S service. That includes newer O/S version's as well like W10/W11 & "server" versions like W2019/W2022 as well. The name is hilarious though...

Hi Chris.

You are right. NSSM is pretty nice. I also used it to make some java applications (web applications with embedded web server) to run as services.
