To put your application in the tray you need to add a NotifyIcon to your form. You would make the NotifyIcon visible, hide your form and set its ShowInTaskbar property to False.

Starting your app with Windows is up to Windows. You would need to add an entry for your app to either the Startup folder on the Start menu for the user or the system, or else the Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key in the HKCU or HKLM hives.
