Hello,
I'm trying to add a "Send to Notification Area" item to the context menu for
my application's taskbar button. (For example, right-click a CHM file
(i.e., SQL Server BOL) in the taskbar, and it has three extra menu
items...Separater, Jump to URL, and Version.)
The only thing I found that might be what I'm looking for is in C#
(below)...having a hard time translating. How do I do this in VB.NET?
Thank you!
