[Question]About Traybar

How Could I Put My Program At The Traybar Icons Instead At The Taskbar???

I'm Using Visual Basic 8...

Using a notifyicon and a contextmenustrip..

on form_load

Me.ShowInTaskbar = False
NotifyIcon1.ContextMenuStrip = ContextMenuStrip1

You also have to set an icon for the notifyicon, else you won't be able to see it.

put in you program ShowInTaskBar = True
there you go

Form Load (Set Icon)

 Me.NotifyIcon1.Icon = Me.Icon

Form Load, Set it true

Me.NotifyIcon1.Visible = true

VB Syntax for Minimizing to System Tray

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        NotifyIcon1.Visible = False
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub NotifyIcon1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles NotifyIcon1.MouseDoubleClick
        Try
            Me.Show()
            Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
            NotifyIcon1.Visible = False
 
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox(ex.Message)
        End Try
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub Form1_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize
        Try
            If Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized Then
                Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized
                NotifyIcon1.Visible = True
                Me.Hide()
            End If
 
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox(ex.Message)
        End Try
    End Sub

Show Balloon Tip
(use on minimize, but can be adjusted for anything

notifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(3000, "Your App", ("Application has not closed" & DirectCast((13), [Char]) & "You can access it from System tray") + DirectCast((13), [Char]) & "Right click the Icon to exit.", ToolTipIcon . info
