hi,

I am developing a window application using c#.net.

In the main MDI Form i used a timer, and in timer's tick event i have done some neccessary work.

In this form I also used notifyicon to put application in system tray on minimize, It needed to hide the Form (just like yahoo msgr/google talk).

when application is in maximize state Timer work properly whether it is focused or not, but if application is minimize in system tray, Timer on the form does not work.

I any body know how to run timer event when form is hidden plz suggest.

Are you hiding the form or closing it? You probably should consider moving the timer to the object that is running in the task tray instead of in the form that opens up. You can attach to the timer from the form as well as from other places.
