Iain,
Flashing menu or taskbar ? For taskbar :
declare short FlashWindow in win32API ; 
  integer hWnd, short bInvert
declare integer FindWindow in win32API ; 
  string @ lpClass, string @ lpWTitle
lpWtitle = "MSDN Library - October 2001"  
FlashWindow(FindWindow(0,"MSDN Library - October 2001") , 1)
Would work and you could use GetActiveWindow() API in clicked app. It would be nonzero when the app is active.
For menu you could create an HTML menu in a webbrowser control. Probably I could pass you a sample on this.
