Notify Icon

[JoeVB]

I have a prob with my notify icon control. I found some great code on the internet about using this control and it works fine. The one issue is that when the app is minimized in the systray, I can still see it on the ALT+TAB menu. If I select it from that menu the app will come up just fine but when I click the 'X' in the upper right it doens't minimize to the systray as it should. What it does is minimize itself just above the Start button on my task bar in the lower left.

If I start my app, use it as much as I want and not bring it up via the ALT+TAB menu, then it will perform as expected: minimize to the systray.

Can anyone help with this?

You have to set the form's Visible property to False if you don't want it to appear in the Alt+Tab list.
