Codemonkey.. Look at a couple threads up from this one and there are like I think 2 with the answers Like Simsbro sortof asked the same question. If that's not it.. Let me know. It depends on the profile you use.

Simsbro did ask the same question but, as far as I can tell, the answers there are not complete.

I have used this vbs file for start buttons in the past. all it does is send CTRL-ESC. The start menu will pop up in it's normal place.


set wShell=wscript.createobject("wscript.shell")
wShell.sendkeys "^{ESC}"

The 'Windows' key is a start button, mine even says Start! tap it once and there is the start menu...

I found that was the only way. Because you can't activate the shortcut that you need in the dock or on the desktop. Plus why would you want to? It would take more time than hitting the window's key or ctrl-esc. I found several ways to sortof do what they are talking about. But it invovles messing with the .exe files. Which isn't the best thing to do. Plus they would have to know Hexa.
