I was wondering if it's possible to set an AIR application to start up with the OS and in the case of Windows, remain in the taskbar?

it can start up when you login, that is all. and yes you can have an icon in the taskbar.

start on login:http://livedocs.adobe.com/air/1/devappsflash/help.html?content=app_launch_1.html
(under launching on login)

NativeApplication.nativeApplication.startAtLogin=t rue


taskbar: http://livedocs.adobe.com/air/1/devappsflash/help.html?content=taskbar_1.html

Thanks! That helps alot... i got the application starting with user login. However, even from looking at the documentation, i can't tell if there's a way to add an icon to the windows system tray/notification area (lower right) or Mac's equivalent (top right). I saw some mentions in the livedocs but i'm having trouble implementing it. Any ideas here? Thanks again.
