I want to create a window with no button on the taskbar. I am using VC++ 6.0 w/ Win32. I have been playing around with it for a few minutes, but I haven''t found anything that works. Does anyone have a solution? -Mike

I''ve been messing around with dialog boxes and just used WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW. I''m not sure if you can do that with a regular window or not.

Thanks for the replies guys. It just so happens that my window is actually a dialog box. I guess I could have mentioned that . But anyways, I made the dialog a tool window and that worked.
