The application has an user object n_service which has various functions for controlling services. These functions will work with any service, not just PowerBuilder services. The functions are:

of_enumservices - Returns an array of the installed services.

of_eventlog - Logs messages to the system event log.

of_getdisplayname - Returns the display name for a service.

of_servicestart - Starts a service that is currently not running.

You can use this program as an example for adding features to a client app to interact with your service.
