Hi all,

I have created a windows form application with visual studio c#, which has two forms.
When the application runs the main form appears and if user presses the minimize button of it, the main form becomes hide and the other form appears.

Every things goes fine but the problem is that the second form should open in the taskbar(like what JetAudio and KMPlayer and etc.)

I have seen this article but i did'nt understand how should i use the HelloWorldBar in my application?

Well, I guess you have to do like the rest of us; Try and fail until you succeed.
Looks like a pretty good article to me, so it should help you getting started if you debug the code and see what happens.

Hi George, Do you know what should i do in win 7?

I have never tried this concept so I don't know.
Sometimes you just have to try on your own.
Is it really important that you get your functions in the task bar?

What do you mean by "open in the taskbar" ... that the icon for the second form should appear instead of the icon for the first form?

Hi CHill60,Thanks for your reply.No i mean the second form with it's controls should appear inside the taskbar.
