jhansenjr, you must also realize that service name come in two flavors. short name as used in the registry services key and the display name.

Ths can be easily seen by using SCLIST.exe.

code:
Alerter                          Alerter
AppMgmt                          Application Management
aspnet_state                     ASP.NET State Service
Ati HotKey Poller                Ati HotKey Poller
AutoProxyService                 Tyco Electronics AutoProxy Service
AvSynMgr                         AVSync Manager
BITS                             Background Intelligent Transfer Service
Browser                          Computer Browser
Some methods may want the short name and others may want the long name. Some don't care.
