Get windows callbacks in LabVIEW

I was wondering how to get windows callbacks messages in LabVIEW. A typical method I am seeing from MSDN in text based programming is to use the RegisterWindowsMessage("<message string>") method that's in user32.dll. I am just playing around with .NET in LabVIEW, and one example is creating a system tray icon. You need to handle the "TaskbarCreated" message, but that is not an event callback of the notifyicon class. Is there some other way I could register an event like this using .net?

Well, i killed explorer.exe, restarted it, and the system tray icon was still there. Looks like it doesn't need to get the message. I wonder if that's true for other classes as well. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

In between reboots and perusal of the LV Detailed help (inside joke) you may give this a look if you haven't already.
