Hi,

This is one way:

VBSTART
Sub MinimizeAll
Set oShellApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
oShellApp.MinimizeAll
End Sub
VBEND

VBRun>MinimizeAll

A less sophisticated way:

WinKey+M (minimize/restore)

I have the same question as Hero_Fest and just tacked mine on the end of this thread. I don't have either VBScript (I use Msched ver 5.10) or a keyboard with a WinKey. Is there another way?

I am using Windows XP. I know that if I double-click the Show Desktop.scf file it minimizes all. In Msched I tried to run this file as program without success. I can't figure out the language to make it run (maybe something like RUNDLL to execute it)?

Any thoughts on this approach or some other?

Hi,

Good idea! Works for me:

ExecuteFile>C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf

I was trying Run Program> . . . Show Desktop.scf without luck. Never thought to use ExecuteFile. Works great. Thanks
