Hi Huib, Thanks, I will look into YAJSW, it seems like a pretty straight forward way of doing it, I'll write back with my findings!

It's fairly easy to accomplish. There are other applications that can run Java apps as a Windows Service for you as well.

The -S switch to start BaseX in the background is nice, however a proper windows service would be even better! Anyone that has accomplished this? Hartelijke groet, Huib Verweij
