Hello
Do I have any options to run Edbsrvr as a service
and open the ElevateDB Server window.
I want to have some control over the open session and other settings
Thanks, Sorin

I'm pretty sure you can't do that. My understanding is that Windows will not allow a service to do any interaction with the user interface.

I've been pondering this issue as well with a project I'm working on. I've thought about a creating a second program that can communicate with the server/service through maybe an ini file or a database table that the server would periodically check. I think there are more elegant communication solutions out there but they are sadly above my skillset.
