Tweak the ShowInTaskbar property?

hi there, i am relative new to vb so pls go easy on me.
i am using multiple forms in my programme, now, my form will load as a
individual form outside my starting form.
it's getting a bit messy,(i have about 10 forms)
my question is simple, how do i load the form such that it does not show on
the windows apps tray?

i am using  jsut
load myform
myform.show

thanks in advance,
wei kit

Well,

For starters, you could play with the .ShowInTaskBar property of all your
forms.  They will allow you to stop them from cluttering up the place.
Unfortunately, you cannot set this property during run time, so that might
cause some problems.

Instead, depending on your project, it might make more sense to just move to
an MDI (Multiple Document Interface) architecture.  VB makes it super simple
with the MDIChild property and the simpleness of just clicking on Project ->
Add MDI Form to add the main form.

heres how i do it, first in VB, change all the visanle properties for your
forms to false

load the load you want with

load frmWhatever
frmWhatever.visable = true
doevents

to get shut of the form

frmWhatever.visable = false
unload frmWhatever
