How would you create a dialog for the taskbar, not the system tray but the taskbar in C++ API? Like the quick launch. Like maybe a text box or something in the taskbar. Can this be done?

the quick launch is a directory. Just put in that folder a link. For example on my computer it is:
F:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

No I mean making a toolbar. Like the windows media player one.

Thanks for the help! I've gotten onto a good trail from that information which might end it success.

PS: I found out what it's name is: a 'Desk Band'.
