Hi!!!
    I created a program with a Windows System Tray Icon. Then, I put a code
to show Balloon Hints whenever I pass with mouse onto it. But, the Balloon
takes much time to close. On Windows XP we have a close button and Windows
2000 we need to click on it to close. But IŽd like the ballon closes as a
simple hint. When the MouseŽs cursor leaves the Icon it hides. I think it is
somewhat like Timeout. IŽd like to know how I could do it: Hide the balloon
when the mouse leaves the Icon or/and I click with the mouseŽs right button
to call the menu.

Best Regards,
Alexandre Moraes
