Minimise to System Tray

Hi all

Problem
I want to minimise my app to the sytem tray ensuring that:
1) Application is not listed in the taskbar.
2) Application window does not minimise and hover as a small block above
the taskbar.

NotifyIcon is being used, ShowInTaskBar is set to false.

I saw a posting from December saying that only way to do this is by
showing and hiding the form, but I don't believe that - this isn't eVB...
Any suggestions welcome.
Many thanks
Paul

Do you want a solution in VB.NET or eVB?
