Hi,
I'm just wondering if this is possible
I do a program that runs on a machine 24h/7I would like to be able to advise the program that he may start working on somethingand the rest of the time he just stay in stand by there waiting for the next advise.
Is this possible ?

Anythings possible.
As long as you have some method of communicating with the service.
Something like msmq /wcf queuing or sockets would allow you to send a message to your service and get it to stop / start on demand.
It's a fairly common requirement in the business world.
