0 Finsta Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Add a NotifyIcon control onto your form and this code into your form_load: NotifyIcon1.Icon = Me.Icon and set your form not to be visible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 anog Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 You can also add a context menu. That way when you right click on that icon a menu will appear ;) Just change the Context menu of the notify icon to a context menu you create on a form. Also checkout NotifyXP if you want to add XP Ballon tips support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
