Here is some Ideas:
1. use AT command under windows nt and run a script that check for changes
in files every say 5 mins.

2. create vb_application which monitor this location for changes...you are
professional VB, I think properly the easy way...if you don't want it to run
all the time, then combine with at command.

Cheers,
