This seems to be precisely what I require. Any idea what the interface is
called and when SP3 is due?

Thanks
Alan.

In Windows 2000 SP3 and above, and in Windows XP and .NET Server, you
can register an initialization component for a server application. The
component needs to implement a specific interface with a "startup()" and
"shutdown()" method. The method is called when the DllHost starts, and
again when it stops. You cannot abort a shutdown from the shutdown()
method, but you can slow it down or hold it until you've taken a good
shot at allowing outstanding processing to finish.

Is there a standard way to intercept (and postpone) the application
shutdown
command in the component services snapin? I just want to be absolutely
certain that all processing is complete prior to my application shutting
down.

After searching MSDN I found an OnAppForceShutdown event, but my
understanding of events is that this is simply a notification and does
not
wait for the event handler(s) to complete.

Thanks
Alan.
