Taskbar Icons

[Al Secen]

Does anyone know how to programmatically (from VBA) add or
delete icons in the taskbar? Is there an object model
that's used or a method that's available through some
object? Thanks

Add or remove icons from the taskbar? You start or terminate programs to do
that...

Or perhaps you mean the Quick Launch bar? Check out the CreateShortcut()
method, and create a shortcut to whatever program in the "\Documents and
Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick
Launch" folder.

As a developer of an application, how do I register it to
have an icon appear in the task bar?

The system tray? I don't know if it can be done with VBA, but check out
Shell_NotifyIcon() and friends, and MS KB article Q162613.

System Tray - that's what I wanted. Much thanks.
