Making the taskbar disappear!!!

How do you make the taskbar disappear and I also want the icons to disappear!!!

Code:

---

' hide and show the taskbar
' put his in a bas module

Option Explicit
        Dim hwnd1 As Long


Public Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" _
    (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As _
    Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags _
    As Long) As Long


Public Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" _
    Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName _
    As String) As Long
    Const SWP_HIDEWINDOW = &H80
    Const SWP_SHOWWINDOW = &H40

'<<<<<  form event >>>>>>>
show'

Call SetWindowPos(hwnd1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_SHOWWINDOW)



'hide
    hwnd1 = FindWindow("Shell_traywnd", "")
    Call SetWindowPos(hwnd1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_HIDEWINDOW)

Using ShowWindow might be easier.

Code:

---

Private Declare Function FindWindowEx Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowExA" (ByVal hWnd1 As Long, ByVal hWnd2 As Long, ByVal lpsz1 As String, ByVal lpsz2 As String) As Long
Private Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nCmdShow As Long) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    'Hides the TaskBar. Change 0 to a 1 if you want to show it.
    ShowWindow FindWindowEx(0, 0, "Shell_TrayWnd", vbNullString), 0
End Sub

This will hide/show the taskbar and the icons as well.

Code:

---

Declare Function findwindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Public Declare Function FindWindowEx Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowExA" (ByVal hWnd1 As Long, ByVal hWnd2 As Long, ByVal lpsz1 As String, ByVal lpsz2 As String) As Long
Declare Function showWindow Lib "user32" Alias "ShowWindow" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nCmdShow As Long) As Long
Public Const SW_HIDE = 0
Public Const SW_SHOW = 5
Dim progman&
Dim shelldlldefview&
Dim syslistview&
Dim tray&

Private Command1_Click()
progman& = findwindow("progman", vbNullString)
shelldlldefview& = FindWindowEx(progman&, 0&, "shelldll_defview", vbNullString)
syslistview& = FindWindowEx(shelldlldefview&, 0&, "syslistview32", vbNullString)
tray& = findwindow("Shell_TrayWnd", vbNullString)
Y = showwindow(syslistview&, SW_HIDE)
X = showwindow(tray&, SW_HIDE)
End Sub

Private Command2_Click()
progman& = findwindow("progman", vbNullString)
shelldlldefview& = FindWindowEx(progman&, 0&, "shelldll_defview", vbNullString)
syslistview& = FindWindowEx(shelldlldefview&, 0&, "syslistview32", vbNullString)
tray& = findwindow("Shell_TrayWnd", vbNullString)
Y = showwindow(syslistview&, SW_SHOW)
X = showwindow(tray&, SW_SHOW)
End Sub

Thanks Megatron :D
