Sateesh...Thanks for the great article. I am a newbie and is working perfectly. I have 2 questions Q1: This service works when I setup the service to look for local folder on my system..If I change the lookup folder to some shared drive on another system..the service is not getting started. What needs to be done here. Q2: In the email part it is working fine whenever a file is added or deleted or modified. But in the email it always gives my system name and my ID though it is changed at others system. I would like to see his system name and his ID. What needs to be done here. Pls advice and thanks in advance --Peter

Thanks Sateesh. I'm a newbie in programming, and have been having a hard time to figure out where was the problem on other sample, that just didn't work for me. But yours, finally, worked!!!
