Hi,

I noticed that when I send 2 Shell_NotifyIcon in a row, only the first 
is processed and the 2nd one is ignored.

So, in order to get both notifications to be processed, I need to 
introduce a  delay.

I expected the last notify to replace the first notify, but apparently 
this does not happen. As longs as the first notify is being processed, 
the 2nd notify is apparently discarded.

// Set default icon colour
Shell_NotifyIcon(dwMessage, &IconData);
// Do something, depending on result set new icon colour
Shell_NotifyIcon(dwMessage, &IconData);

Can someone clarify this behaviour? How can I make certain that all my 
notifications gets processed ?

Thanks,

Kris
