Classes for Networking and Services  By creating classes, you
can simplify Windows APIs' functionality and make code reusable.
The Services Monitor application uses several networking and
system Visual Basic (VB) classes I created. The CNetwork,
CDomain, CServer, and CNetErr classes encapsulate the Windows
Networking (WNet) APIs. The CService class encapsulates the
Service Control Manager (SCM) APIs. You can use these classes to
harness the power of lower-level WNet and SCM APIs without
stepping into the messier and more difficult details of API
coding. You can use these classes in other applications by
including the appropriate .bas and .cls files in your project.
Services Monitor provides a sample framework that demonstrates
how you can use these classes, but you can use other methods and
priorities that Services Monitor doesn't use. Table A provides
an overview of the VB networking and service access classes that
Services Monitor uses.
