Tray icon for a Dialog based app.

[Ali Raza Butt]

I wrote a dialog based application using MFC Visual C++ 5.0 to control certain devices through the serial port. I want to put the icon in the system tray, But even after trying with the Csystemtray class I am nowhere. Can someone give me beginners instructions to do so????

Check out P.J. Naughter's web site. He has an excellent demo and full source code, although you will want to change a few lines of code for your dialog app. If you have any questions after you've had a chance to download and play around with the code, let me know as I've used it quite a bit!
