Thanks Herman. I will give it a try.




>>I tried it but it does not seem to work although I am not sure that I am getting the right window handle to the task notification area (normally bottom right position, at the end of the task bar). I am using FindWindow() on "Shell_TrayWnd" and it is returning a window handle of 65658. I dont know if that is the correct handle though.
