I have developed a program using vb.net 2008 that will allow you to open another program at a specific time. This is just a beta and that is why 2 way of telling the program when to close the program that opened and this program.Anyway this is my issue when I get everything set up to open the program once it opens i don't have focus on the main form or the notification icon. (When the program has not lauched the program I am able to use the notication icon. (notification icon does the follow: restores the main window to normal view and exits the program.) Could some help to get the notification icon to work when the program has launched.[code]

I have a notifyicon in my VB.NET application. At the start of the programm it goes to the system tray and adds some global hotkeys. If one of this keys is pressed, then a balloon tooltip appears. At design time I have set up the balloon icon as 'Info'. But when the balloon tooltip appears, no 'Info' icon comes up, only the standard balloon tooltip. However, when the icon type is set up to 'Error' or 'Warning', it works. Why this behaviour? (on Vista)
An another problem is, that I set the timeout property f.i. to 500 milliseconds, the balloon tooltip is even visible after some seconds too.

Not a single site anywhere, and I have even tried the MSDN, that details in any specific language how to draw a custom icon into a tooltip.
I have tried using every format of image I can produce, including (but not limited to) ICO, PNG, GIF, BMP, JPG etc... But every time, the app debugger clouts me round the head in defiance.. Windows Vista CAN do it.. and as in the image above.. StarDock figured it out..
I know your policy is to have the askee produce their code first, but the thing for me is
Also, I wonder if it would not be possible to take the code that does do the whole shabang, and compile it into a DLL or something that I can just embed for future projects - again this can be uploaded for others to refer to.

Every six minutes, my program talks to an instrument. Then, it activates a notify icon's tool tip for half a second to say what it did and when. According to the databases, everything's been going great, but the balloon tip text is a week behind and still trying to catch up. I'm getting text after text about stuff that happened last week. You should know that no one's touched the machine for at least a week. Because the program talks to the instrument every six minutes, the computer never hibernates, never shuts down, and the screen saver is off.

I am working on implementing cell level error indication in my app and I have it set up to where it shows the error icon correctly and I tried using the datagridview FAQ sample code to show an errortooltip as well. I can watch as I set the errortooltip to have the proper data and display control (in mousemove event), yet the second I finish my mousemove event it fires the mouseleave event and resets my tooltip before the user ever has a chance to see it.
Here's my:
' show and hide the tooltip for error
Private Sub ChuteSinglesDataGridView_CellMouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles ChuteSinglesDataGridView.CellMouseMove
If cellInError.X = e.ColumnIndex AndAlso cellInError.Y = e.RowIndex Then
Dim cell As DataGridViewCell = ChuteSinglesDataGridView(e.ColumnIndex, e.RowIndex)

Form1 is a mdi container. It has a bunch of forms that can load inside of it as mdi children. If I close each open form inside the form1, and then click the red X at the top right, application exits fine.If I click the red X without closing the forms inside I get: An unhandled exception of type 'System.CannotUnloadAppDomainException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Error while unloading appdomain. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131015) However I can break from it. How do I get the application to not show that error? What must I do to fix those inside forms or close when the red x is clicked?

Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Set frm = Nothing
Next frm
The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.
I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.
Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?
Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?

I currently have the following code but I would like to get away from going to a physical location. If I have the icon as a resource, how can I programatically add the icon? I don't want to use the form's designer to do this.

Dim ico As New System.Drawing.Icon("C:Resourcesicon.ico")
Me.Icon = ico

I'm not sure exactly if the folder icon is in shell32.dll, but nonetheless if it is.Basically, whenever I come across a folder in a FileSystem list, I want to add the icon for a folder to the image list that I am using for the ListView. The problem is that I'm not sure how to reference a specific icon location in a icon collection in a dll.Is this possible with Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon and shell32.dll?

Got an annoying issue it's Visual Basic 2010 I changed icon where the assembly name.I got a good icon it has lots of sizes, or I tried diff sizes like 64x64 128x128 nothing seems to work I only see the icon when i do View > Details so it's small icons in the folder, but if i have view large icons It doesn't work. I even used the same icon on VS 2008 and it worked.

Here's the code that I use to extract the icon size that I want:
Dim i As Icon = My.Resources.Spectrum
Using i2 As New Icon(i, New Size(256, 256))
Me.PictureBox1.Image = i2.ToBitmap
End Using
This works from 16x16 up to 128x128 but for 256x256 it extracts the 128x128 icon. I tried 0x0, because I seem to remember that that is how the large size is stored in the meta data, but that didn't work either.

Why is it that the icon of my form appears only when I am running it in my IDE. When I publish my program and running it in Windows, the icon does not appear at the taskbar, what appears is a default icon instead.
