    Question Hide app in task list?

    I am not a C++ programmer but was given an app written in VC 6.0 and I need to have it hidden in the task list. How would I do this in VC++ 6.0? I mostly program in VB.

    Thanks for your help!!!

    how would you do it in vb?

    API's are the same, I'm not sure how to look that up on MSDN...so iif you have a VB example...it probably won't be too hard to convert

    Does anyone have an example of code to show how to do this for both 95/95 and NT? I tried converting and cannot do it.

    I appreciate it!

    You can use ShowWindow(<YourMainWindowHandle>, SW_HIDE) to hide the app-window, the taskbar- and tasklist-icons.
