Yes, if you right click on the file TaskWindow.win and select Attributes... you get a dialog with a Menu field, which you can change to NoMenuBar.

Thanks, but I see that MDI cannot be used if task window has no menu. How could I change an existing project to SDI or what are limitations? Are MDI/SDI described somewhere?

MDI/SDI are aincient Windows ideas and I am afraid that we do not have any conceptual description of it.
The main idea is (where "document" should be considered "loosely")
- An MDI (multiple document interface) window have embedded document windows.
- An SDI (single document interface) application does not have embedded document windows.
But there is a lot of direct and indirect implications of this.
It is not advisable to change a project from one to the other, the advice is to create a
new project of the other kind and move the relevant functionality/files into that project. I suggest that you first play around with an SDI project first to become aquainted with it.
