Hello,
I am curious, I have a code that is able to hide all icons on the desktop. However, I would like to only hide selected icons on the desktop. Is it possible?

Hidden icons:
ShowWindow(FindWindow(nil, 'Program Manager'), SW_HIDE);

Show Icons:
ShowWindow(FindWindow(nil, 'Program Manager'), SW_SHOW);

Thank you everyone
 
Your question has a familiar tone to it... Why do you want to do this?

Roo
Delphi Rules!
 
Familiar tone? you mean there is a posting regarding this?
Anyway i saw this program "Fences" that is able to hide all icons interestingly. So i am thinking if i was able to create this using Delphi, or just similarly hide my selected icons.

Yup.
