This is a topic discussed in August. I did some rethinking on it. My opinion is that it's difficult (impossible?) to do the tray icon in a service.
For a service + tray icon + GUI scenario, I think a user application is needed. Basically the service does all the work and the GUI application starts when a user logs in and communicate with the service using some IPS mechanism (named pipe? socket? any other suggestions?) The downside is that the communication between the service and the tray icon is some extra work. Any existing framework out there? -- Best regards, Jack Sunday, August 28, 2005, 10:41:57 AM, you wrote: > Hello Jack, J>> I tried your svc sample.
