Do you really mean the system tray (the little box of icons by
the clock in the lower right corner of the screen)? If so, be
aware that the sample that comes with BCB is quite buggy.

What I think Santa was trying to tell you is that you have 2
choices for establishing a HotKey. RegisterHotKey is thread
specific where as using WM_SETHOTKEY creates a global HotKey
that is associated with a particular window.
Your problem maybe your choice of implementing the HotKey but
I suspect that it's more likely how the systray is implemented.
