I have created an SMS application in .NET.
I wanted that the application should run when the computer starts, even before the user logs in.

Just like the SQL Server.

    You need to create your application as a Windows Service. The linked MSDN page will provide full details.

    Microsoft Windows services, formerly known as NT services, enable you to create long-running executable applications that run in their own Windows sessions. These services can be automatically started when the computer boots, can be paused and restarted, and do not show any user interface. These features make services ideal for use on a server or whenever you need long-running functionality that does not interfere with other users who are working on the same computer. You can also run services in the security context of a specific user account that is different from the logged-on user or the default computer account. For more information about services and Windows sessions, see the About Services section in the Platform SDK documentation in the MSDN Library.
