I have a program that when it is launched it opens in the sys tray. Then you have to go and double click the icon in the system tray to actually open the program to use it. I am writing a script that will bypass this. I currently have this script launching the program (easy enough), but it still goes to the sys tray. How do I get the script to launch it from the sys tray. Any ideas?

to keep it from going to the systray. You'd have to check with the vendor of the program to see if there are any possible command line arguments that can make you do what it needs to do without user interaction. I know you can send keystrokes with vbscript, but i don't think it is possible to make it do mouse clicks.

I was afraid of that. I already thought that was the answer I figured I would just throw it out there to see if anyone knew a trick I didn't. Thanks for the help!!!
