Windows Form startup position

Hi all,

How can I load a form and display it in the lower right hand corner and have
a 'docked' appearance to the system tray?

TIA,

For the positions: play with the height and left-properties:

Me.Left = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Width - Me.Width

Me.Top = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height - Me.Height

What do youexactly mean with the 'docked' appearance?

Not really docked, but a tight, clean look as to where the window displays
on the bottom right hand corner.
