Is there anyway to have a program start and load up when Windows loads up??

Thanks

- You could put an entry for your program in the registry under [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

- you could put a shortcut to the program under the "startup" group in the windows start menu.
(Typically under C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup for all users, or use the username for an individual account. Of course, since that location isn't the same on each computer you should figure out the exact location programmatically...
