Newsgroups: softvelocity.public.clarion6 >Does anyone know how to make a balloon type message that pops up from the >taskbar tray similar to windows update? >Even a flashing icon would work. > >I have an icon in the taskbar now, using winevent, and a right click menu. If you want a balloon message from your systray icon, look in your WinEvnet docs under ds_WinTaskbarBalloon.
