Setting up task bar functionality, much like Norton etc..

[zink421]

I am writing a backup program that has timed backup procedures. I want it to stay in memory at all times to allow the timer control to execute at specific times. Furthermore I need an icon displayed on task bar left of the system clock. I want the same basic functionality as norton antivirus - the program stays running at all time, + an icon added to the task bar that the user can click on to activate the program?

Take a look at

and search for 'system tray'. This is one of the references that came up.
