Converting a Console App to a Service   

In my console app, I run a Timer.  I had to add a reference to 
system.windows.form.dll and then do an Application.Run to keep the console 
app from closing.

Is it necessary to add the windows forms reference for the timer in a 
service?

For any reference it is simple to tell. Take it off. Does it still 
build? If not add it back. This simple test works for any reference, not 
just windows forms.
