 Win 95/NT task bar for ActiveX.EXE

I looking to create a taskbar icon for an ActiveX.EXE project I have been
working on. I wish to not make my properties window visible during startup
but instead show the form only after taskbar icon is clicked. The task bar
icon I am referring to would reside next to the volume control icon within
the Win.95/NT task bar.

 Win 95/NT task bar for ActiveX.EXE

Hello Ken,

The only *safe* way I have ever found to put an icon in the system tray
(i.e. without crashes) is to use my company's SysTray control.  And best of
all for you, it is multi-thread enabled!  So you can put it on any form in
your ActiveX EXE, assign an icon to it, and then run your program!  And
three examples are included.

By the way, you can put as many icons as you want in the system tray and
even animate them with ease.  And new to this release, you can minimize your
windows to and restore them from the system tray!

BTW, I would recommend putting the control on the form you want to activate
and simply hide the form; the icon in the system tray will stay there.  Feel
free to contact me directly with any questions.
