How can I create a docking desktop tool bar in C# .net 2.0...This tool bar
should dock on any side like the windows taskbar.

I have created such toolbar in Visual C++ 6.0, but can't figure out how to
do it in C#

I have already gone through such posts.
In visual C++ (MFC) its possible to set some properties of the dialog box to
make it dockable on the desktop....

I don't want to use any extra code as I have to keep the application
compact. So, I am looking for something inbuilt.
