    The icons that I'm talking about are the ones on the desktop. Is it possible to set the form "z-order" (for lack of a better term) behind the Icons perminently? I've tried the SetWindowPos API (I think thats what its called) but it wont get the form behind the desktop icons. Any ideas? Thanks.

    You can't do that. The icons aren't seperate objects themselves, they are drawn onto the desktop. You would have to obtain a picture of the desktop and redraw it on your form.
