The new script also doesn't seem to work for me. It is non-responsive when I try to to scroll on the taskbar. I'm using Vista.
did the earlier script work in Vista? if no, then follow the suggestion i made to urlwolf and let me know the Vista taskbar's handle.

The early script did work for me, but the alt esc does not recognize the incremental order if windows are selected out of order from their placement on the taskbar.

For the second script I placed the debug lines on the bottom of the script, but it did not make an error message come out.

by bottom, i hope you meant the section i showed in the earlier post. btw, there will be no error messages, only a tooltip showing the "class" of the taskbar. i'll try to get someone with Vista to try this script then maybe i'll have an idea.

I initially place the code in the wrong place, but after I put the code in the right way it shows "ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd" as the tooltip.
