[AccessD] Personal question about OCX

Drew,
 
We bought software that has some automation programs that receive email and
send email among other things.  Each one is a separate "module" or "add in"
for this software package.  They were intended to run on a pc and started by
an individual as they were needed.  Our need exceeded this use, we need this
to run 24 / 7, so we started them on the server, and simply locked the
computer letting the "modules" run.  I did look in to the OCX to see if I
could convert these little exe's into services that would run on the server
without logging into the server, however I believe you need to insert code
into the applications on load events or something if I remember correctly.  
 
Do you know of any other way to let an application that should be a service,
run as a service.  Hang up is that I cannot gain access to the source code
without paying, or having them do it and charge us out the wazzoo??  All I
have is an EXE that I kick off.  
 
Just looking for some insight...
 
thanks,
Rich
