    The ShowInTaskbar property will show your form in the taskbar. If it is not doing it, we are gonna need to see some code.

    If you meant the system tray, then take a look here:

    Hope this helps,

    well if you are making a form that you don't want to be resized.. then set the border to 1 - fixed single.. if you want it to be resizable.. then set it to 2 - sizable...

    if your form MUST be one of the other border types... then i don't know what to tell ya about getting it in the taskbar though..

    GLAD TO BE ABLE TO HELP
