[Jeff F]

Is there any way to change the tray icon while the program is running ?

DLLCalls and a lot of very ... very messy code. More trouble than it's worth, honestly.

You can hide the icon.....

Maybe that would be the start of the process....hide it, change it, unhide it. *shrug*

1. steal underpants...(hide it)

2. .... (change it)

3. profit. (unhide it)

Or download latest beta with Holger's tray stuff (and lots of other great new functions) here

and run this example from the help file:

#Include <Constants.au3>
#NoTrayIcon

Opt("TrayMenuMode",1)  ; Default tray menu items (Script Paused/Exit) will not be shown.

$exititem      = TrayCreateItem("Exit")

TraySetState()

$start = 0
While 1
    $msg = TrayGetMsg()
    If $msg = $exititem Then ExitLoop
    $diff = TimerDiff($start)
    If $diff > 1000 Then
        TraySetIcon("Shell32.dll",Random(0,100,1))
        $start = TimerInit()
    EndIF
WEnd

Exit

If you look in my http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/public/Steph/ you will find PingIt, which changes the it's tray icon depending on whether the 'ping' is OK or not. As tuape says, you will need Holger's tray bits in the latest beta (see link above).
