Hello stefan, i have found very simple solutuion to this problem. before your posting but than also thanks. whenever we click on shutdown it will call form closing event in the application and i have written following code in my form closing event. this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized; this.Opacity = 1; this.ShowInTaskbar = false; if (this.FrmCloseFlg == false) { e.Cancel = true; } thats y my application is not going to exit instead it will be in minimize position. so i have used one boolean variable and use condition as follows if(!InSystemTray) { this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized; this.Opacity = 1; this.ShowInTaskbar = false; if (this.FrmCloseFlg == false) { e.Cancel = true; } //UserCanceled = true; UserInfo.InSystemTray = true; } else { Application.Exit(); } The InSystemTray will set to false again whenever we manually clik on open context menu or double click tray icon ,whatever it is. is it simple na!!!!!:laugh: So we dont have a right to call any person an idiot ok buddy,be cool Regards, Irfan Kothari
