This works for NT, 2000 and XP... but I haven't tested it with a REAL Windows
95, 98 or ME machine. (I only run them under Virtual PC, and the code below
doesn't seem to work with it). Maybe you can verify? I assume it'll work by
simulating pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL to invoke the "Close Program" dialog.
Code: Select all
; By PB. Untested on a real Win 95, 98 and ME.
Procedure LaunchTaskManager()
Select OSVersion()
Case #PB_OS_Windows_95,#PB_OS_Windows_98,#PB_OS_Windows_ME
If FindWindow_(0,"Close Program")=0 ; Don't do it twice or we reboot!
keybd_event_(#VK_CONTROL,0,0,0)
keybd_event_(#VK_MENU,0,0,0)
keybd_event_(#VK_DELETE,0,0,0)
keybd_event_(#VK_CONTROL,0,#KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0)
keybd_event_(#VK_MENU,0,#KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0)
keybd_event_(#VK_DELETE,0,#KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0)
EndIf
Default ; NT-based systems (NT, 2000, XP).
ShellExecute_(0,0,"taskmgr.exe","","",#SW_SHOW)
EndSelect
EndProcedure
LaunchTaskManager()
You could also try this on 95, 98 and ME (works for NT, 2000 and XP):
Code: Select all
PostMessage_(FindWindow_("Shell_TrayWnd",0),#WM_COMMAND,420,0) ; 420 = Task Manager.

As a suggestion: the Task Manager in Win 95/98/ME is really basic, so it should
be very simple to recreate it using a ListIconGadget and getting the list of tasks.

The thing you get with Ctrl+Alt+Delete is NOT the task manager in Windows 9x.

Well, for all intents and purposes, the CTRL+ALT+DEL thing is what we're
obviously referring to, and what doodlemunch is trying to invoke.
