I would like to remove the speaker and x button from the
right side of the Start Bar. Does anyone know how to do
this. Thanks for any help provided.

The bigger picture...
Don't need the Start Bar but I do need the Main Menu and
possibly a SIP. I originally wanted to remove the Start
Bar all together and replace it with my own heading bar,
but somehow it is intimately assiciated with the Main Menu
and you can't have the Main Menu with out the Start Bar.
My new thinking is to keep the Start Bar and use it for
the purpose to show the form's heading and the time.
Another posting showed me how to remove the Start Icon
from the Start Bar and it works beautifully. Now I just
need to get rid of the speaker and the x button and it
will be complete. I will post the details of the total
solution in my posting from yesterday; Subject: NO Start
Bar.. YES Main Menu.
 
I figured out how to get rid of the X button, but I am
still working on the speaker. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated. I will post the X button part as soon
as I have some time.

Hi Rob,

Removing the system speaker icon isn't supported with .NetCF. You'll need
to PInvoke, if it's even possible.
You can remove the entire start bar by setting Form.WindowState =
FormWindowState.Maximized, and removing the main menu.
