I think you are asking three questions:

  1. How do I create a Windows Service
  2. How do I open and read data from a database
  3. How do I notify a user

Answers:

  1. Example
  2. If you can use .NET 3.5 and SQL Server 2005 or 2008, I would recommend LINQ to SQL
  3. A Windows Service has no UI, so you would need to think about how you want to notify the user. The simplest option might be to send them an email.

Based on some of the clues you provided in your question, I think you should probably look at WCF:
