I got used to use VB ACTIVEX EXEs and when using the compiled EXE and
instantiate it the EXE name appears on both tabs of Task
Manager(Applications and Processes). But when using the ATL EXE
produced by ATL .NET (unmanaged) I can see the application name in the
Processes tab only, and the it is not viewed in the Applications Tab.
Is there any thing to do to make it visible in the Applications Tab of
the Task Manager.

Task manager shows top-level windows (with style WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW) in
it's Applications tab. If your process haven't got such a window, it won't
show. It is unrelated to which language was used to write it.
