I really need help, I have a project that create a new Systray window(systray handler). It works fine in VB6 but I want to change all the code, so it works under .NET.

If anyone would help me with this, I would be really greatfull.

Do you know what a Systray HANDLER is ? Obviously not. I don't want to create an Icon in the system tray.

A Systray HANDLER is a container that CONTAINS all the Icons that are loaded in the system tray.

This project, is a window, that simulates the real systray, all icons created using other programs is loaded into this project I have attached, and shown as icons, just like the real system tray in the right bottom corner of your taskbar.

Thanks...Please help me convert.

You can't run it in VB .NET it's too different from VB6. That's why I need help.

wrong ! you can run vb6 projs into VS.NET IDE . Some of projs hopfully run with little errors and easy to translate to .net , others can't as COMs , ActiveX .
Open VB.NET click open project , locate your vb6 proj . a wizard will show which converts it automaticaly to VB.NET proj . Did you do this ???
