How to disable the start menu
Contributor: CHANDRAMDE@USA.NET
For some reasons, we don't want our program to be disturbed by any
program/window. Even we disable all top-level window including Win95
Taskbar, Start Menu still appear when user press Start Menu Key on keyboard.
Well, here's a trick to avoid user to start a program from Start Menu.
Procedure TForm1.Timer1Timer(Sender : TObject);
Var
desktop, tophwnd : HWND;
Begin
desktop := GetDesktopWindow();
tophwnd := GetTopWindow(desktop);
if tophwnd <> Form1.Handle then SetForegroundWindow(Form1.Handle);
End;
{Make sure Timer.Enabled is TRUE and Interval = 1}
It's not the only way to do it, but it works.
Hello, Gayle.
My name's Chandra. I'm Indonesian. ;=)
Here's my little procedure to hide Start Button :
Procedure HideStartButton;
Var
taskbarhandle,
buttonhandle : HWND;
begin
taskbarhandle := FindWindow('Shell_TrayWnd', nil);
buttonhandle := GetWindow(taskbarhandle, GW_CHILD);
ShowWindow(buttonhandle, SW_HIDE);
end;
*Replace SW_HIDE with SW_RESTORE to show it back.
Is anyone there know how to put an image or text on taskbar Win95?
Please, post it to my address. (chantit@hotmail.com)
