Sep 25, 2007I'm writing an application that I want to keep status text always on the taskbar. Some programs like Windows Media player create a toolbar that can be added to the taskbar. Is there a way to do this in VB.NET, and if so how ... ?

Nov 20, 2009I saw an application for cashier system in a certain store.

.net - Launching A Child Process And The Windows 7 Taskbar
Sep 30, 2010We have an application that self-updates using a Laucher.exe process which copies down new App.exe and DLLs from a server then runs them in a separate process. This was all working very well until the arrival of the Windows 7 taskbar... Problem is in Windows 7, if the user pins the Launcher.exe to the task bar (by right-clicking the shortcut to Launcher.exe) then this happens... When you start the program the "pinned" taskbar icon momentarily gets focus while the launcher is running but then a totally separate new icon appears when App.exe is running. If the user then decides to right click the icon from the running App.exe and pin that to the taskbar, they bypass the application update part of the process.

View 3 RepliesTBPF_INDETERMINATE Status Has No Effect In .NET 2.0 On Windows 7 Taskbar?
Apr 15, 2011I have a very weird problem. I have a VB.NET 2.0 application that takes advantage of Windows 7 taskbar button progress features, i.e. displaying certain progress and application state in the Win7 taskbar button.Everything works just fine - I can set and update progress, I can set the button to paused or ewrror state, I can set it to No progress. Everything works, except MARQUE (Indeterminate) mode. This is a total mistery, whenever I set state to TBPF_INDETERMINATE (value of 0x1), it simply changes back to NOPROGRESS type, i.e. it removes all progress inidcation from the taskbar button and sets it back to its default state - no animated marque is ever displayed!
I have read documentation on MSDN -[URL] tried various combinations like setting progress to 0 and then calling set state to indeterminate; or like setting it to normal first and then to indeterminate - nothing works. It's a total mistery - and there is no clue in the documentation as to why it is failing...

Switch Form Between Full Screen No Taskbar And Sizable With Taskbar?
Mar 29, 2011I 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.
If Me.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None Then
Me.ControlBox = True
Me.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable[code]....
How do I get the taskbar to disappear and the form to display properly when I return to the full screen mode?
