I have an application with an icon that sits in the system tray. When I

but maybe in VB2005 there's another way.

That only gets a form on the top of the other forms within the same
application. I want it to be on top of all the other applications as well -
not hidden behind Word, Excel etc.

Hi,
We want to develop a client application that can be plugged into
hundreds of other applications used by our bank. These applications
include browser-driven apps, desktop client apps, etc. Some of these
apps run on Windows and others on Linux and Unix. Our client
application will be invoked by clicking on a link or a button from
within these applications.
Our client application will be used for manually entering free form

I have an application running in the background, visible only by a notify
icon in the system tray. I learned from other posts to catch the
WM_QUERYENDSESSION and WM_ENDSESSION messages. Now, when I want to
shutdown/restart the computer the application exits but the shutdown process
does not continue anymore. Here's what I've done:
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
// Exit message code.

The program is nearly ready to be used in other customer sites.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
