Hi!

VB6 form object have a property for that (show form in taskbar or not), but I do not know for sure if you can use it in run-time in event when form is minimized. There is a way also to do this by API functions, but I do not remember exactly how to do this ;(

>>There are also more advanced things with tray icons (like interacting with events of tray icon, for example, to show the shortcut menu when user clicks on a tray icon). I can help you in these to explain them if you will not find samples.
