Syntax: object.TaskVisible

Sets whether the application appears in the Windows taskbar and task list.

Syntax: object.TaskVisible = value

value
A Boolean. True to show the application in the taskbar and task list; False to hide it.

In VB6, setting TaskVisible to False hides the application from the Windows taskbar and the Alt+Tab task list. This is typically used for out-of-process ActiveX EXE servers that run in the background without a user interface. A server that presents no windows of its own should set TaskVisible to False so that it does not appear as an idle entry in the taskbar.
