Hide Windows TaskBar

Does anyone know the code in C# or snippet or API so i can hide and show the
windows taskbar? Many people have suggested using ShowWindow and FindWindow
or the ABM_SETSTATE but i am having problem with the code. Cant seem to make
it work. Would really appreciate any code given.. Thank you so much! I really
need this one. Thank you in advance.

Hiding and showing of windows taskbar or the auto-hide property of the
taskbar will do. Thank you.

Im using .Net 1.1, XP.

you will definitely will have to P/invoke some API method

Hi

Is your form opening maximized. and you are trying to hide the taskbar..? Or
you are trying to just auto hide the taskbar for some other reason?
