How to sendmessage to systray in dotnet???

Hi,

My app uses NotifyIcon and i want it has the only instance. So when it
second executes, it need to invoke the previous process( in the systray).
How do i send message to the previous process ??? I want to send a double
click message to ContextMenu in the previous process form. I try to use
SendMessage API but i can't get the menuitem's id.

How to avoid it?

Thanks in advance,
Elvis.

I have written an application that lives in the systray but when I try to close windows or logout it does not close my application and therefore prevents windows from shutting down or logging me out. It is essential that I solve this problem but I have run out of ideas can anyone help (please!) The application starts in Start.cs which kicks off the Systray form using this call: Application.Run(new Systray());

I have a system tray app which gets the status of a windows service, and displays the appropriate icon for the status of the service in the systray. the problem I am having is the icon disapears under certain conditions, but the exe is still listed in the processes leading me to believe the app is still running. It fires up perfectly on boot, however if the user logs off, and then logs back in (not reboot), or if the system goes to...

Ok, I am really losing it. I cannot seem to wrap my head around the SendMessage function/method. What I am trying to do is send text/data to an instance of a window that I know the handle of from within a vb.net application. Can someone give me a decent example of the code I would need to create to process this using the sample data below. Windows hwnd = 0xB0484 String text = "NM*14*ACCTNO*MMDDYY"
