How to hide Windows task bar?

General

Hello all.

This is really crazy, but several years ago I wrote code in RB, and cannot figure out where I wrote the code to hide the Windows Task Bar! I completely forget how to do it so after searching the rather large app code without any luck, I was hoping someone might know how to Hide/Show the windows task bar? With that, maybe I can find the code and move on…

Any help would be appreciated!

window1.MenuBarVisible = False

Hides the system UI such as the start menu and taskbar. http://documentation.xojo.com/api/deprecated/window.html#window-menubarVisible

That didn’t do it. No code like that anywhere… this, btw was done about 3 or 4 years ago…

Hi TIm,

I tried Tim Hare’s suggestion and it works. It appears that you may need to add the following code for each window:

Sub Action() Handles Action Window1.MenuBarVisible = False End Sub

Here is a download link to the running program:

HideTaskbar.zip

Let me know if this works for you.
