I'm creating a custom "title bar" with the application logo in it. I want the form to retain it's 3D look and sizability, which I do by setting the FormBorderStyle = Sizable, and ControlBox = False. My only problem is that the TaskBar only shows the form's icon and no text ... looks kinda silly ... is there a way I can keep this look and have my application name show up in the task bar?

Also, I know it's simple to do in VB6 with a couple of API calls, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do this in VB.NET. I want anyone the clicks and holds the label on the top of the form to be able to move the form. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can accomplish this?

TIA!
M.
