This is an example of reverse engineering the task bar to recognize 
that it uses the Windows built-in Toolbar control and using a 
standard message to manipulate that control.  But if you want to 
automate the re-arrangement of buttons, I think you have to go 
deeper and reverse engineer how the Taskbar associates the window 
handle of the active window to the toolbar button. 

I did this at one point and had a taskbar sort working for older 
versions of Windows.  But it was sometimes unreliable.  And MS 
changed the internal data structures used by the taskbar with XP so 
it broke.

The taskbar shuffle author seems to already have done this.  The 
program is free, so I won't try to duplicate what the author has 
done.  I would like for PowerPro to preserve taskbar button order on 
vdesk, without have to reverse engineer the taskbar, and may look 
further into this at some point.
