Form must not display in Application task bar

Hi,

I have a problem with the ALT+TAB application task bar, I have an
application wich have more than one form displaying, but I just want
one(the main form) display in the application task bar (when we push on
ALT+TAB) and not the secondary form.

Cheers

Thanks

But the property is at false, the showintask bar property show or hide
the application in the taskbar (on the bottom on the desktop with the
Start Menu) and my form does not appear in this bar, but it appears in
the application bar (which appears when you push on ALT-TAB)

Regards

This works on the assumption that you are opening the secondary form in
"showdialog" mode.

Leave the showintaskbar to true on both forms. Hide the first form
before you showdialog the new form. After the new form closes, show the
original form again.

Dim Frm As YourFormName = New YourFormName
Me.Hide()
Frm.ShowDialog()
Me.Show()

Hi,
I can not do a ShowDialog, because the other window must stay active,
my foreground Windows is a top most form, which stay in front of the
page but I must can make action on the two form.
