Default Accessing the Systray; what language/function does this?

Thanks Chip!

See on line help for the Declare statement. This lets you
declare the API functions you want to use.

Thanks. I only have a tiny grasp of a VB, and because of the

minmal
documentation regarding API in the Help file, I assumed that

any calls to
the API had to be done in C++. I assumed that's what this

newsgroup was.
Thanks for guiding me, I'll look elsewehre.

I want to put an icon in the systray. I don't think VBA

does this.
Is there a VC++ or C++ Function or Sub that I can declare

that will
allow
me
to create a systray icon (or is it

windows_notification_area)?
Thanks in advance,
Yo.


It can be done from any language, provided you can make calls

to the
Windows
API. But ask in a windows newsgroup. That's where you'll

find
windows-related answers.
