Thanks but not exactly.  I have a customer who doesn't want his operators to
run
anything while the app is running (it's a control system).  I've found how
to get
rid of the taskbar with

HWND H = FindWindow("Shell_TrayWnd", NULL);
  ShowWindow(H, SW_HIDE);


Now I just need to find how to prevent the app from minimizing and how to
get it out of the tasklist for taskmanager...
