computer management

[tarunk]

Hi All,
I have a question about the services which is in the computer management window. Can someone tell me in the registry where exactly is this information stored. For example i am looking for a software that is installed in the services list of the computer management window and i want to see where this software information is stored in the registery editor window?

thanks

It can be seen at HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services, but thats not the right way to get information about service, there are Win32 APIs to do that,
