That's the point. I know the usage of Shell_NotifyIcon API, but I need some
application data I don't know at first, hWnd and uID.

To get the hWnd I tried to use FindWindowAPI, but how can I find the icon in
the traybar? I tried by usng that API passing the ToolbarWindow32 class but
I didn't succeed.

The same problem I will have to get uID element.

Any further help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jaime
