    Local $h_NewControlHWNDFocus = ControlGetFocus($h_NewHWNDFocus, "")
    If ($h_NewHWNDFocus = $h_CurrentHWNDFocus) And ($h_NewControlHWNDFocus = $h_CurrentControlHWNDFocus) Then Return 0
    AdlibUnRegister("WindowAudioFocus")
    If Not ($h_NewHWNDFocus = $h_CurrentHWNDFocus) Then
        SoundPlay(@ScriptDir & "\focus_Audio\WindowChanged.wav")
    Else
        Switch _WinAPI_GetClassName(ControlGetHandle($h_NewHWNDFocus, "", $h_NewControlHWNDFocus))

May I make a simple suggestion:

When building stuff like this, start small and only use a few classes. Get that working, Then add a class, test again. Once you get that test to pass, save that copy of the script then repeat the cycle. This way when something goes wrong, you have a MUCH simpler time trying to figure out what is broke. Right now you have a large script and I have no idea what the problem is or what is not working.

For the various Focus/Hover events on those controls, you may take a look at WM_COMMAND and WM_NOTIFY handlers.

These two handlers "capture" messages sent from or to the various controls in a GUI (click, double click, drag, and so on), and you can use them to make some fun things.

For example, there is a Notification Code (so are called) that is sent by a ListView when you hover on an item, which is called $LVN_HOTTRACK.

You could use it to do what you need.

There are plenty samples on the Forums; just take a look at and play with them :)

here is the code that i tried

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
    $menuGUI = GUICreate("menu")
$menuFile = GUICtrlCreateMenu("&file")
$menuOpen = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("&Open", $menuFile)
$menuGo = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("&get", $menuFile)
GUISetState()
    GUIRegisterMsg($WM_MENUSELECT, "WM_MENUSELECT")
While 1
Switch GUIGetMSG()
case "-3", 3
exit
EndSwitch
Wend
Func WM_MENUSELECT($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
#forceref $hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam
soundPlay("focus_Audio\menu.wav")
EndFunc   ;==>WM_COMMAND

After you get the $hWnd you can use any other function like _WinAPI_GetClassName
