    What special edition on Outlook do you have that does not show in the Applications tab? It shows in both on my 2010 edition, and also did with all previous versions I have ever had installed.

        Hey guys, if I start my project, I can see it in the taskmanager. Is it possible to make it just visible in the processes (not in the applications)??? :doh:

        This article[^] explains how to do it in C++/Win32, so it may be of some help.

        It's time for a new signature.

          You misunderstand, some there are two tabs in task manager, titled 'Applications' and 'Processes'. He is saying his program appears in both the 'Applications' tab and the 'Processes' tab and he wishes to remove his entry from the 'Applications' tab.

              If you look in the Taskbar notifications area (Windows 7) you can see running apps that do not have visible windows or icons on the main part of the taskbar. These apps show up in the process list but not in the application list of Task Manager. There are a number of MS applications that do this and behave somewhat like a background task, generally doing nothing until the user right clicks the icon and initiates some action.

                      Try setting the ShowInTaskbar property to false because apps that are not displayed in the taskbar will not be displayed in the applications tab if you have noticed.

                                Use this statment: App.TaskVisible = False
                                This statment will hide your form from applications list. And it can be seen at Process. If you Run it From IDE, it will not create any process. It is executed from IDE(vb6).
