QuestionSystem Tray Icon Question Pin
RodgerDJr10-Sep-12 7:19

Hello all,

I want to try and do something that I think should be fairly easy, but I could be wrong. I want to have an icon in the system tray and it would change colors and blink depending on the system status.

Green - All systems are up and running
Red - There is a system down.
Yellow - Scheduled outage for today.
Orange - You are not connected to the network.

Ia m not sure how to even get started. I have written code, but not a lot of VB more VBA, ASP, Javascript. Would I create a service for this. I was thinking about having the icon check for a file.

So if the file is called Green.txt The icon would be green and if the user hovered over the icon or clicked on it the contents of the text file would be in the balloon or a message box could display the contents.

For Orange I was just going to ping a DC and if it did not get a reply then I know they are not connected to the network.

I have searched for hours to find something but I cannot seem to find anything.

TIA,
Rodger
