Process.StartIn fo

[Alan T]

I use
Process.StartIn fo to configure the process:

Process myProcess = new Process();

myProcess.Start Info.FileName = aProg;

myProcess.Start Info.Arguments = aArgument;

myProcess.Start Info.CreateNoWi ndow = true;

myProcess.Start Info.WindowStyl e = ProcessWindowSt yle.Hidden;
myProcess.Start ();

I notices during the myProcess is processing, there is icon on the task bar
and it is gone when the process is finished.
This make me a problem as I may have 100 processes to process so there will
be 100 times the icon appears on the task bar when one is finished and the
next is starting.

How do I make it does not appear on the task bar ?

For simple apps (e.g. console) that seems to be enough; what are you
calling (what type of app)? If the app is (via a form or whatever)
doing this itself, you may struggle, short of capturing the handle and
doing some PInvoke. Not nice. You could also try disabling
UseShellExecute , but not sure how much this would help.

Hi,

On my main form, I start that process by calling a third party executable
(eg. doctotxt.exe) to convert a Word file into text file.
I have 100 Word files to convert.
During the file conversion, the task bar has an icon/program displaying the
name of the executabl, ie doctotxt.exe, flashing it when it starts,
finished.
So if I have 100 files to convert, I need to call the process 100 times.
The task bar will display the icon with text "doctotxt.e xe', disappear, and
re-appear again, 100 times.
