Some great concepts in there Duncan, thanks! That should provide me with the stepping stone I need before taking on Taskview ;-)

Sorry for the *dumb* question (being a web forms guy) but, how did you get the application icon into the resources (.resx) file for the form... do you use resgen.exe to do that?

I knew it would be something like that but when I built my regex tool [ http://www.flws.com.au/showusyourcode/MarkItUp.RegexSnippets.zip ] I couldn't work out for the life of me how to do that so I imported the icon into my project.

Re: The application icon...

Just set it in VS.NET, into the icon property of the form, the Windows Forms designer automatically adds it to the form's resource file.
