Why is my program not showing in the taskbar? *RESOLVED*

[homncruse]

All the forms are set to "ShowInTaskbar=true" and I don't have any funky API calls or any advanced code for that matter. It's just a simple program used to make my life easier and it's not even showing up in the taskbar (either in project form or .exe form). I can't figure it out - I've checked the properties of every form and it's stumping me :S

What is your form's BorderStyle?

[homncruse]

They are all set to "2 - sizable"

[MartinLiss]

MDIChild forms?

[homncruse]

All false.

[crptcblade]

Are you calling the form from a Sub Main, and showing it as modal?

[MartinLiss]

That's the answer. If you show your main form with Me.Show vbModal in the Load (or from sub Main as suggested by crptcblade)it will not show in the taskbar

[homncruse]

Yes, it is calling from sub Main() - how would I go about using Sub Main and still get a taskbar entry?

'Below are constants for common HTML tags
Public Const p As String = "<p>"
Public Const b As String = "<b>"
Public Const br As String = "<br>" & vbCrLf
Public Const cp As String = "</p>"
Public Const cb As String = "</b>"
 
Option Explicit
 
Sub Main()
 
    Load frmMain            'Loads the form into memory
    frmMain.Show vbModal    'Shows the main form and waits
    End                     'Ends the program
End Sub

Don't use vbModal, and don't use End. There should be no need for either.

Sorry, force of habit. Thanks for the help everyone!
