C# 2005 : How do I Disable icon in Alt+Tab list

[CyberSoftHari]

I did below and it is not showing in task bar but when I press Alt + Tab then it is showing in that list. How to disable there.

ShowInTaskbar = false;

if you .Hide() your window (remember to provide a way to show it again) it will not show up in alt+tab.

I think the other alternative is to use some win32_api

Thanks, and i got the solution using user32.dll like

[CODE=cpp]
'Decleration part
#region Remove from Alt Tab
[DllImport("user 32.dll")]
public static extern int SetWindowLong(I ntPtr window, int index, int value);
[DllImport("user 32.dll")]
public static extern int GetWindowLong(I ntPtr window, int index);
const int GWL_EXSTYLE = -20;
const int WS_EX_TOOLWINDO W = 0x00000080;
const int WS_EX_APPWINDOW = 0x00040000;
#endregion[/CODE]

calling after InitializeCompo nent, or form load events
[CODE=cpp]
int windowStyle = GetWindowLong(t his.Handle, GWL_EXSTYLE);
SetWindowLong(t his.Handle, GWL_EXSTYLE, windowStyle | TOOLWINDOW);[/CODE]

Does that cause any changes to your forms layout or borderstyle?

No, everything usual.
