the items available in Windows taskbar. Can anyone help me in this
regard?

GVN,

The area of the taskbar that holds the buttons is a ToolBarWindow32
window class. You can use the FindWindow API function (through P/Invoke) to
get the handle of the window, and then send the TB_GETBUTTON message to the
window to get the button information. You can increment the index for the
item you are requesting until it gives you an error.

Hope this helps.
