Here is a class and module that enumerates the services on a Windows computer. It gets each service and puts its info into a public collection which can be used anywhere in the program.

The attached ZIP file contains the full class module, as well as the standard module.

Usage

Option Explicit Private Sub Command1_Click()
   Dim x As clsService
   Dim strHostName as String

   For Each x In colServices
      MsgBox x.ServiceName
   Next
