Hi Guys,

I have created a windows service which now I want to install / uninstall
without using InstallUtil.exe. I am already having another setup program
which now needs to install this service.

How do I do this? Please help.

Thanks

Regards,
Sachin

There is a table in the MSI file called ServiceInstall, adding record to that table with info about service file,
will tell MS installer to install your service

For more details look at ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/msi/setup/serviceinstall_table.asp?frame=true )
