This is probably a simple one, but I would like to know how to keep
animation active when a window looses focus.

I am using MFC with Visual C++ v1.52.  I am moving bitmaps across the view
window with bitblt's.  Whenever I activate a dialog box or other
application, the animation visually stops, although it continues in memory.
 When the animation window regains focus, the bitmaps move from where they
would have been if the window stayed active.

Any help would be MOST appreciated, since this project's deadline is coming
up.  TIA

--Steve
