I have a visual basic project that makes use of the "timer", and kicks off different applications throughout the night. I have a problem with the cleaning people closing the app when its minimized. I need something where the app will run "hidden". Or at least of the Task Bar. It could run in the system try or something like that, just where it's not easy to close. Thanks.

You could make your form visable=false and place an icon in the system tray for access to your program via a menu. To find out info on the icon in the system tray search this site for "icon system tray" using your forums.
Good Luck
