Yeah, think I know what you mean - I use (and love) that lightweight taskbar MP3 player thingy from MS - I chucked MediaPlayer and RealAudio out the window ... Anyways, there are buttons on the taskbar, and when you click on one of the buttons, a PLAYLIST pops up from the top of the taskbar ... slick ...
The maximize thingy ? Yeah, that would work in theory, so one would create a form, keep it HIDDEN, then MAXIMIZE it, then subtract the form HEIGHT from the SCREENHEIGHT, resize the form and make VISIBLE ... hmmm ...
{EDIT}
Can't think of a way to maximize the form though. [ 15 June 2002, 02:04: Message edited by: Shawn ]

Yeah, actually, you might have to try the ie thingy. One can MAXIMIZE a window when it gets shown, eg,
$form.show($MAXIMIZED)
or maximize a visible window, but having a tough time figuring out how to MAXIMIZE an invisible window, hmmm ... One of the MSDN articles I was reading posed the question ...
