Look at Notifications

Thanks for reply
but I want to show the number of notification only when the APP interface is not shown ...

Then read about IsPaused

THanks alot
But I already find a workaround

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)
If UserClosed=False Then
ToastMessageShow ("Program is running in background",False)
Iamshown=False
End If
End Sub

and in the Sub Process_Globals I add

Iamshown=False

The Service will read the Value for IamShown, if it was yes then it will display make the notification, other it will not

NOTE: The Iamshown will have the default value when the app start as True

Correct for me if I am wrong
Thanks
