loading the system tray

[MelissaW]

is it a difficult task to place a prog in the system tray?
I want a prog to stay running constantely. btw...I'd like this to work on
W98
as well as XP if possible.
Also, is there a way to programmatically add a prog to msscheduler.

would someone please point me in the right direction?

In the toolbox there is a NotifyIcon control. You can use it to put your
icon in the "system tray".

no, look up NotifyIcon control (it's in the toolbox).

i think you should create a service, lots of tutorials out there who explain
the basics. As long as the framework is installed it should work on w98 and
up.

Also, is there a way to programmatically add a prog to msscheduler.

would someone please point me in the right direction?
