How are you detecting that the mouse has entered the taskbar notification area?

Follwing is the Code I am using to know whether the mouse is on the Tray Icon or not. If its on the Tray Icon I am showing the Dialog Box. But I want to Hide it when It leave the Tray Icon.

void PutInTaskBar(HWND hWnd)
{
...
...
nfd.uCallbackMessage = WM_TASKMSG; //user Message
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD,&nfd);

}
LRESULT CALLBACK MyDialogProc( ... )
{
switch(message)
{

case WM\_TASKMSG:
           if(lParam == WM\_MOUSEMOVE)	
	{
               // Mouse is on the System Tray Icon
               ShowWindow(hWndDlg,TRUE);
              }
     }

}
