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

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.

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