The article in bcbdev covers all what I need, specially using

ShowWindow(Application->Handle, SW_HIDE);

But the article didn't explain more when saying about this function that
"Hiding the form's taskbar icon with ShowWindow is not permanent. Certain
actions will cause the taskbar icon to reappear"
what sort of actions can make the taskbar icon RE-APPEAR, and is there
anyway other than the Tool Window, as tool windows don't show icons in task
bar, but the windows title is shown on the down left corner of the screen so
if I use it .... nothing is changed and I didn't achieve my task..

thanks a lot for your patience and support
