[RESOLVED] getting the handles ?

You can use the Spy++ tool ( VisualCInstallFolder\Common7\Tools) to grab the window hierarchy from the desktop and then use FindWindowEx to navigate to the desired button/window.

On my machine running XP, from the destop the hierarchy is as follows

 
        Title      Class
Root  NULL          #32769 (Desktop)
 L      NULL          Shell_Tray
   L    "start"        Button
 L      NULL          TrayNotifyWnd
   L    "11:02 AM"  TrayClockWClass
   L    NULL           SysPager
   L    NULL           Button

Another way to approach this (and a more reliable way, imo) is to use Active Accessibility. AA gives you more control over accessing UI entities that may not be available using other windowing techniques (like FindWindow, EnumWindows, etc.)
