Application not showing up in task bar

Hi,

I'm using C#/Net 1.1 and have a problem with my application not
showing up as supposed in the task bar. Before calling Application.Run
I perform a couple of startup tasks which take a few of seconds to
complete. If I during this initialization process activate another
application no task bar button is shown for my application until I
manually activate it. Anyone got any ideas on how to get that task bar
button to show?

I don't know why that's happening, but two possible solutions. Could
you move the start up tasks into the application proper? and if not,
you could try toggling this.ShowInTaskbar = false; then
this.ShowInTaskbar = true; to see if that helps.

Toggling ShowInTaskbar in the load event of the main form worked.
Thank you very much!
