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:

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.
Check out the CodeProject forum Guidelines[^] The original soapbox 1.0 is back![^]

You're right, I misread it. But when I fire up my Outlook 2007 I see it both in Applications AND processes... ?!?!?!
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.
It's time for a new signature.

Please reply to the correct person, i.e. the one asking the question.

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).
