system tray icon

[stefanus]

can anyone tell me how I would go about making an application minimise to the system tray (the area by the clock) instead of just going to the task bar

There are many 3rd party components out there to do this. Try

http://www.utilmind.com,

I know there's one there.
If you're using BCB5, look on the Samples page - there is a Taskbar component there.

try:
$(BCB)\Examples\Apps\TrayIcon
and...
$(BCB)\Examples\Controls\Traydemo
