1. Hiding a program taskbar entry

I have a program with more than one top-level window. 
But each top-level window gets a notification in the
taskbar. I want only the first window to do that, like
normal, but the rest to not have them, as if they were
child windows. Can someone tell me how to do that,please?
It often happens in error, and you get programs running
with zero indication on-screen - but how do I do it when
I want to do it?  Any suggestions?

Hello Andy,

Did you write this program in Euphoria? If so more detail is needed. If not
   sounds like as Windows problem.

Yeah, sorry,lack of thinking. I am using Judith's IDE and
Win32Lib to write code for Win XP.  Each proper window gets
an entry on the taskbar even if they are all part of one
program. I just want to be able to hide all the secondary
window entries so the taskbar remains sensible. 
I imagine there is some flag you can use in the createEx
call, or something similar, that can do this. I hope so...
