Set your forms ShowInTaskBar property to True in the property window.

As for the program not shuting down when you close the form,

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
    End
End Sub

Using End is bad programming practice. What is probably happening is that there are some objects that are not being unloaded so they cause the program to remain in memory.

Maybe you could give us some more information about your app?

Using End to force a stubborn app to close is like removing the temperature warning light in a car, and anyway DNG never said it didn't close but that he/she couldn't switch back to it
