it shold be as simple as possible , also i dont know how to run code in backgroung.
do any one have a sample code , so that from which i can learn.

Ok here is an example of how to put your app in the Systray. It shows a few tips like ToolTip and flashing icon. If its running in the background it can be visible in the Systray.

To save on my upload space here is an app that will allow you to add or remove your app from the Windows startup Show Application at Startup.

If you get stuck then you can always do a search on PSC

You can do as Keith said or you can have your program start by scheduling it in the Scheduled Tasks found in your Control Panel. Just select "Start At Log On".

Well it would be a guessing game without seeing your app. Can you post your app or is it a secret?

You can have it running as soon as Windows starts up. You best option would be to have it running in the background but you have an icon for it in the Systray (next to the clock).

hey guys,
help me again.
i want a code for alarm. the program should store at least 10 messages at a time.i have some sample.
now the problem is that i miss the alarm when the pc is off. i want tht it should remind me when i start my pc next to that time.

what can i do..
can i have a simpler code.
my need is to get reminder, no graphics is also not a problem. i just need that a message box is open telling me the reminder.
