VB.NET 2002 on Windows 2000 SP 3
When I start my program, the NotifyIcon appears in the tray, as it should.
However, when I close the program, the NotifyIcon remains until I hover over
it with my mouse. If I don't hover over it to make it disappear and then
open the program again, another one is added, resulting in a multiplicity of
the icon in the tray.
I've even tried setting its Visible property to false, followed by a call to
the Dispose method of the NotifyIcon in the Form1_Closing event, but the
NotifyIcon still remains when the program closes.
How can I get the NotifyIcon to disappear when I close my program? Thanks.

Does it do this on all machines?

Simply explicitly remove the tray icon in the form closing event.

I had previously attempted that method, i.e. explicitly referencing and
removing the icon from the tray. However, I was unable to determine how to
reference it. Do you know how it can be referenced? The word "Simply"
certainly sounds encouraging. Thanks.

VB.Net:
Protected Overrides Sub OnClosing(ByVal e As
System.Componen tModel.CancelEv entArgs)
YourTrayIcon.Vi sible = False
YourTrayIcon.di spose 'propably don't need this.
End Sub

Oh ... yea. That's what I did, as indicated in my initial posting (see
below). I thought you were saying you knew of a way of directly accessing
and removing icons in the System Tray.
But I think I discovered why NotifyIcon1.Vis ible = False in the OnClosing
event wasn't working. I was quitting the program from the VB.NET
development environment, so it wasn't triggering the OnClosing event.
Anyway, thanks.

OK, maybe this is my opinion, maybe these are bugs.
Given the folowing:
I have a NotifyIcon on my Form, a Context menu associated with the
NotifyIcon, and a MenuItem on the ContextMenu set as default. When the
default MenuItem is clicked, there is code to no longer show the NotifyIcon.
What I feel should happen is when I double-click the NotifyIcon in the
system tray, it should perform the default menu item's Click event.

I've been working on an application which has a NotifyIcon (system tray

not to any other control.

There doesn't seem to be a mouseover event for the notifyicon, but I

I would think it should disappear on its own when the application ends
- if you have a main form and others, they'll all close when the user
kills the main form. In any case, I override the OnClosing method and
set notifyicon1.Visible = false, but still, after my program ends, the
icon is left behind in the notification area.
I've seen the same thing pretty often with SQL Server Management Studio
2005. Is this just a bug inherent to...

I have a NotifyIcon application. (c# 2) I want to be able to catch a
kill/shutdown attempt so that I can call Dispose() to remove the icon. I
tried to create an event handler for ApplicationExit and put my icon
dispose call in there, but when process.kill() is called from an outside
app on the notifyicon app, the event doesn't get raised. the app closes
but the icon remains in the tray as dispose was never called.
any ideas?

I have a program which puts an icon in the notification area and has a menu associated with it available by right clicking on the icon. I want the menu items to be selected by single left clicks but I also want the user to be able to single left click on the icon itself to do some other functionality.
Here's the problem - the single click on the menu first fires the notifyicon1_click() routine and then the menuitem1_click() routine. How do I...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
