Unfortunately, this is a question, not a solution.

When I create and show a new form from my main form in my C# windows application, the icon does not show in the task bar (task bar, mind you, not system tray) until I click on the form.  The form actually has focus when it shows.  The taskbar shows the empty, iconless, default view.  After I click on the second window, the cion then shows in the task bar for that window.  However, the group in WinXP remains blank even though both icons now show.

Anyone have anything to say about this?

What I want to happen is pretty straight forward...  When the second form is loaded, it has the icon immediately and the group also contains the common icon.

I am still a forms novice so perhaps I have totally missed something.

I am loading my icon from embedded resource during the form init.
