Have a look on MSDN for the TrayNot sample. The API to put an icon in
the notification area is Shell_NotifyIco n.

When the app is in normal/maximized view, clickinng on the taskbar entry does not minimize the application. Normally (with apps with titlebar), the application would minimize when you click on

hi all, i was wondering how is it possible to add an extra box ( i think they are called boxes: upper right corner ...) in a form that will minimize it in the system tray? You know some applications have a 4th one (apart from the square , bar and X ) which contains a dot and once u click it minimizes the application to the tray. TIA

Hello guys, I have done a small utility and would like that an image be displayed on the the windows tray (on bottom-right of the screen). Also I would like that when one clicks on X (close) the application be minimized and only the tray icon be visible. When one clicks on the tray icon the application shoud return to its normal status (normal/maximized, depending how it was when was minimized).

Anyone have code that creates a button that will Minimize Excel to the system tray. I do not need anything complicated like changing the minimize button or the close button to a minimize to tray button. I have a Form that pops up when excel loads, and I will add a command button called Minimize that I just want to minimize excel to the system tray.
