I have a mfc-based app that I need to have minimise itself to the windows toolbar when it starts. &nbsp;Not a button on the taskbar, but on the toolbar to the right of that where the clock/volume/etc sits.<br />
Ive looked everywhere and found tons about toolbars in general but nothing about the main windows toolbar.<br />
Can anyone help?
