    Is it possible to Dock your application to the System (Desktop). An very good example of such an application is "Magnifier" which comes bundled with Windows. Your application should behave like a Toolbar. It should so happen that the application should always be active and all the other application open should not overlap your application. Is it possible to do this ? CHEERS - NAGU

      Sure it's possible (since other apps have done it). See the SHAppBarMessage Function[^] documentation in MSDN for more information. You can also read a good overview with code samples by reading Using Application Desktop Toolbars[^].
