Solution per Borland Support:
The TTrayIcon class has changed a bit in BDS 2006, but you can still
accomplish the same thing. In BDS 2006, the following OnClick event handler
code assigns a popup menu to the tray icon and then displays the menu where
the user has clicked:
void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
TrayIcon1->PopupMenu = PopupMenu1;
TrayIcon1->PopupMenu->Popup(Mouse->CursorPos.x, Mouse->CursorPos.y);
}
