>Please give me some details on how to hide a VFP program when it is Minimised and only a small icon is shown on the windows bar - like McAfee Vshield or the WinRoute program. Is this possible with a VFP program?

Hello, Leo.

You can use bbSysTray, a little FLL from Bela Bodecs. Very simple to use and with excellent documentation a a VFP sample.
