I have an app for pocketpc and am trying to get it to run on Windows
CE.NET... Everything works ok except for the times where I have 2 forms
loaded.. 1 is shown with .ShowDialog()... the problem is that the user can
tap the first form in the task bar on CE where they could not see that it
was loaded on PocketPC.

How can i hide this from the user... Idealy there would be a form property
to not show in the task bar but that does not seem to be available in the
CompactFramework.

Thanks in advance.
 
If you set the Form.Visible=false you will not see the form in taskbar. After you close the other window set it back to true and use BringToFront (using OpenNETCF api)
 
Thanks.. I did try that but here is about 1/2 of a second that you can see
the ce desktop between forms showing.
