Icon in system tray WITHOUT active DDT

Semen -

Thanks! I have NO clue as to what you meant in your first reply
to my original message other than ShowWindow/UpdateWindow, BUT,
now that I know it can be done, I'll figure it out.

Thanks, again!

Will that work if the program uses the icon in the tray to
generate popup menu's? That's what I was talking about my
program doing.

Clay --
If you want an icon in system tray only, you don't need DDT at all.
Register SDK-window, then message loop (w/o ShowWindow/UpdateWindow).

After six hours of cogitating and debugging, I have finally
produced some code that demonstrates how a PB/DLL programmer
can put his program's icon in the system tray and use it
WITHOUT having to have a DDT being displayed. It uses the
statement:

DIALOG SHOW MODELESS DB CALL Proc()

IMMEDIATELY followed by:

DIALOG SHOW STATE DB, 0

And, that is in the WinMain FUNCTION.

The transition between showing it and turning off its display is
so minuscle that I couldn't even see the DDT flash on the
screen My system is a Pentium III 600EB running Win98 SE.

If anybody wants me to post the code, reply to this message,
and I'll post it in the Source Forum. Right now, I'm going to
bed.
