Keyboard Command Shortcut

Toribor · 08-26-2007, 05:16 AM

I want to create a shortcut that performs a combination of keys rather than actually browsing to a location. The purpose is to create a "Show Desktop" button that only minimizes windows instead of actually showing the desktop. (It drops my Objectbar and Yahoo Widgets out of the way) The Short cut is Windowskey + M to minimize all windows, which is the function, but I'm not sure how to use it in a shortcut. (The Show Desktop function is not what I want.)

I know the code for an .scf that shows the desktop is:

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Is there a way I can modify this code to minimize all windows?

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium on a Dell XPSM1210 if that means anything to anyone. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
