 Maximizing a minimized application

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a way to maximized a minimized application in
WSH. I have an application that minimizes itself to an icon in the System
Tray. I want to maximize it to make it the active windows, use SendKeys to
send 2 keystrokes to it,and than minimize it again. Can I do this with WSH?
TIA.

Have a look into the WSH Bazaar. There is a WSHExtend.ocx control
that provides the necessary methods.

Thanks for the reply Gunter. I just have one problem. The application starts
and minimizes itself. Using WSHExtend I can launch the appplication, however
the application minimizes itself when it starts up. How do you maximize it
so that you can use the WSHAppActivate method to set the focus and then the
WSHSendKeys method to send keystrokes? I appreciate your input.

Have you tried to use the WSHFindWindow method to
retrieve a window handle?

If I use WSHFindWindow to retrieve the window handle, how do I bring
the minimized window to the foreground?
