Hi George,

Hard to say what the problem might be without more info.  A stand alone 
program like this one:
   ----------
include win32lib.ew

constant
   Win = create(Window,"test",0,10,10,500,500,{WS_CAPTION,WS_POPUP})

WinMain(Win,Normal)
   ----------
On XP using Win32Lib 0.59.1 with Eu 2.4 does show up on the task bar... 
However, without a WS_SYSMENU I must use task manager to close it.

How are you opening the window?  Maybe making it modal will help keep it 
out front?
