I need to create a windows service just as a task scheduler in vb.net which reads from an xml config file in real time and displays any text in the 'message' tag as a pop-up on the desktop with an ok button. Specifically, I want to create the application to check for any numbers in the message text in 'time' format i.e., 00:00 AM/PM and show the pop-up on the screen 15 minutes before the time mentioned in the text.
When the user clicks the 'ok' button in the pop-up, the message text should be minimized and shown as a balloon on the desktop taskbar with the time counting down till it's equal to the system time and then close by itself.
Can anybody please help me with this..
