Findwindow Question

I am using the following syntax

h=findwindow("HHTaskBar",""

I would like to hide the task bar on a CE 4.1 device and I am using VB .Net. I keep getting an error missing exception method. I have tried h an a integer, intptr and a long. I have also declared the findwindow function. Am I doing something wrong or could sample code be provided. I have only tried this the emulator, could this be my problem

Thanks
Brian
 
<DllImport("coredll")> _
Public Shared Function FindWindow(ByVal lpClass as String, ByVal lpTitle as
String) as IntPtr

Dim hWnd as IntPtr = FindWindow("HHTaskbar", Notihng)

I have the code:
dim h as intptr = findwindow("HHTaskBar", nothing)

in the main form in the load event

I also have the code declared in side the form:

<DllImport("coredll")> _
Public Shared Function FindWindow(ByVal lpClass as String, ByVal lpTitle as
String) as IntPtr

I am still getting a missing method exception error when the findwindow call is made. Any ideas?

The following works for me. Not sure what might be the problem on your end
