I'm writing an application which adjust the screen brightness, depending of the time of the day
How do I start the application minimized and prevent it from being terminated by the operating system memory management?
 
Hi,

If u r using Windows CE 3.0 u can us ceapprunattime() API to invoke your
application at specified times. Windows CE 3.0 doesn't support the concept
of service applications. Another way in Windows CE 3.0 is to go for tray
icon application. Windows CE.NET supports service applications

The following link describing services in Windoows CE.NET might be useful to

I would like the application to work on both PocketPC2002 and WM2003, so the windows CE 3.0 tray application seems to be the right way to go, right
Any idea if there is a VB.NET sample of how to do a tray icon application out there some where??
