Hi All,

My requirement is to "Change the system user group through windows service".

On Administrator login I have installed the windows service which will run always. When I login with normal user, from the windows application button click I've to pass the userName to the running windows service. Service should read the username and move the user to Administrative group.

Please suggest me how to pass parameters to running service.

Thanks in advance
