Detect if start menu is opened

[Alexxander]

hi all

is there is a way to detect if win 7 start menu is opened ?

 

so when the start menu is on this state i want to launch  try.exe 

and it must word when the user press start icon with the mouse and when he press WIN Key

and when start menu is closed i want it to close try.exe 

any ideas ?

While 1
    Sleep(100)
    If WinExists("Start menu", "All Programs") Then
        Exit MsgBox(0, 0, "This is real basic stuff")
    EndIf
WEnd

This may be more accurate whatever the language of the OS:

[CLASS:DV2ControlHost]

Edit: You can detect this yourself using the info tool.

Br, FireFox.
