Here's an example of adding an icon into the tray and reacting to mouseclicks in it.
What you need to do to put a window 'in' the tray is minimize your window (to show it's going 'down into the tray'), hide it (so it's not in the statusbar anymore), and then add the icon into the tray. Then when the tray icon is clicked, you can remove the tray icon, reshow your window, and unminimize it.
For minimize/maximize, and show/hide, you can use a call to ShowWindow for each :wink

Not many of us is going to write code for you.  Especially, when it looks like you have not tried to do much.  Tedd's example code works.  If nothing else, edit/re-write his code from a windows style to a dialog style.  And you will have a working shell program.

Hint: There are plenty of working dialog code in Examples of MASM32.

Then finish your program, THEN ask for help.

thats only small example with one function.

Then this is good start to building your skills as a "Best in Class" assembly language programmer.

Enjoy your work   :U

It is only a small example with one function (plus some extra function-ality!) but it does give you all you need to know - if you work through it :P

1. Take my source, modify it to create a dialog, add two buttons to the dialog - "On" and "Off". Make sure there IS an (16x16) icon included in your resource file.
2. Disable the code that adds the tray icon automatically. Add code so that when "On" is pressed, the tray icon is added. And removed when "Off" is pressed.
3. Now remove the "Off" button, and add code so that the icon is removed when clicked.
4. Add to that code so that the window minimizes when "On" is pressed, and restored when the icon is clicked.
5. Hide and show the window appropriately.



If someone doesn't want to help you, that would be 'your' problem, not really theirs -- they don't need your help :wink


P1 -- Down boy! Get that muzzle back on :lol
