UDF _GetTrayBarPos( )

[BugFix]

In some cases you need the TrayBar position. I've made a solution for this. I've tested it with 2 resolutions (1024 x 768 / 1280 x 1024) and it works fine. I hope it is also valid for other resolutions.

I don't get what this is supposed to do, I just always get a return value of 3... What do you mean by the trayBar?

It seems to return the same result for me as well.
