I have been researching for over an hour and finding great samples of how to use MSMQ in C# and even one full chapter of a book about Message Queue...But for a quick test all I need is to cover is this scenario, not even in a perfect way, just for a quick demo: "Application A": Writes a Message to Message Queue. ( Application A is a C# windows service) Now I open "Application B" ( it is a C# winForms app ) and I check MSMQ and I see oh I have a new Message. That's it... All I need for a simple demo. Could anyone please help me with a code sample for this? Much appreciated. Anand //From Windows

I was wondering if there is a way to programmatically check how many messages are in a private or public MSMQ using C#? I have code that checks if a queue is empty or not using the peek method wrapped in a try/catch, but I've never seen anything about showing the number of messages in the queue. This would be very helpful for monitoring if a queue is getting backed up.
