I have a program with which I can open a second form on a beamer, this works perfect, but what I do notice it that on the taskbar (I have windows 7) I see the main icon of the app but also the form that is created.What I would like is that the second icon is not displayed on the taskbar thumbnails, this way I can't close the second form by the X but only by a button on the main app.

I have a form in an application I'm working on that normally displays full screen without a taskbar but provide the option to switch to a minimizable window with a taskbar. When I switch from full screen without taskbar to minimizable window with taskbar everything is ok. When I try to switch back to full screen the border disappears but the taskbar is still there and the form is not aligned properly.The text at the top is cut off somewhat and there's a small margin at the right edge that shouldn't be there.I put this code in a keydown event for the form.

Me.ControlBox = True
Me.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable[code]....
