Hi, How can I make a window to not be visible on the task bar? Just like in winamp, we can choose the window to appear/don''t appear on the taskbar etc. How do I do it? thanx KaMiKaZe

if you don''t care what your app''s titlebar looks like, i.e., you''re skinning your app, then using the WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW extended style when calling CreateWindowEx will do the trick.

if you do care about what your app''s titlebar looks like, then try going through the shell''s ITaskbarList interface and use the DeleteTab method to get rid of your app''s entry.

take a look at this site, you should find some useful things in the tutorial or code snippet sections on this site.

Thanx guys. I''ll stick with ITaskbarList because I care about my app''s titlebar.
BTW: that link has some useful info
