Hi ,
Whenever a new message is put in to the queue by one application(.net application), I want to start a windows service. Is that possible to trigger a service whenever a new message is arrived at the Queue manager??

By definition, a Windows service is a long running task started at machine boot (and in some unusual circumstances log on).
Why, architecturally, would you want to trigger one unless you're reinventing a remote administration tool?
Technically, it's a straightforward task to have an MQ process start a service as a process can do anything a command prompt can do. You'd just need the trigger process to have Administator rights on the Windows machine; something your IT audit & security people may have a view on! _________________ Honesty is the best policy.
