I am trying to intereact with the menu associated with a tray icon.

I was able to left "click" on the tray icon using 

$hSysTray = ControlGetHandle('[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]', '', '[Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:1]')
$sToolTip = "Citrix - Logged On"
  For $i = 1 To _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hSystray)
        $sCurrent = _GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSystray,$i)
         ConsoleWrite($i & ": " & $sCurrent & @CRLF)
        If $sCurrent = $sToolTip Then
            _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton($hSystray, $i, "left")
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
    Next

That brings up a menu with many items. Each item can have a sub menu and a sub sub menu.

I can't  use the Info Tool as the minute I touch the info tool, the menu disappears.

How do you interact with the icon menu?

Unfreeze the Au3Info tool using the menu option or by pressing CTRL-ALT-F, then you can interact with the controls and the info tool will track your mouse. Just be aware, that a lot of tray icon menus don't show in the tool.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

I will give that a shot tonight. 


Once the menu is selected, I wonder if I could send keystrokes to it to move the cursor up the menu to the choices I want to make,
