I wrote a Dll, but now I want to get rid of de text en icon in the taskbar.
Does somebody knows how ? I use Paradox database.
Thanks,

hi jacc,

here's a way how to get rid of the panel in the task bar.

Look at Delphi help topic "TApplication.Handle":
You have to assign the window handle of the host EXE’s main window to the DLL’s Application.Handle property.

So in the first line of your exported dll procedure write:
Application.Handle := MainFormHandle;

where MainFormHandle contains the Application.MainForm.Handle of the exe file.

In my dll I'm using a exported procedure to set MainFormHandle. Maybe there's even a smarter way.
