SysTray is a 32-bit ActiveX control for Visual Basic (and other languages) that allows you to safely place an icon in the system tray (bottom-right corner of the screen). You can change tooltips and icons on the fly and respond to mouse movements and click and double-click events from all three mouse buttons. You can even use built-in functionality to minimize a window to and from the system tray! And now, you can animate your system tray icon with one line of code! Three examples are included.
At times, you want to write an application that runs in the background or unattended but still want a manner in which the user can access your program. Placing an icon in the system tray is perfect for this type of circumstance. Using this control protects you from the inherent instabilities (ie. crashes) of trying to implement similar functionality in your own code. Click here for the SysTray Control Home Page
Desktop Notes is a virtual sticky notes program for your computer. Use sticky notes to jot down messages or collect information--or just use them asmemopads. Pin them to your screen and they will stay on top of everything else.
