Hi Maltin,

There is API way:

Obtain handle to the Taskbar window

hWindow = FindWindow("Shell_TrayWnd", Null)

Shell_TrayWnd is the class name for the Taskbar.

Call the GetWindow in cycle to enumerate child windows for the Taskbar. Hide window with title "Start" by calling the ShowWindow with cmdshow=0.

The following sample code shows how to enumerate child windows either for main VFP window or for the Taskbar.
