I am jumping in to the deep end of windows programming by trying to
write a version of xroach for windows.  xroach is a roach/dirty
apartment simulator for X windows.  The basic idea is that the windows
are hiding places and the background is the counter.  When ever you
move a hiding place the roaches hiding under that window scurry around
the background until they find another hiding place.  It's quite
entertaining and brings back fond memories of college :-)

So, I have a problem.  I have BC++ and the SDK documentation from
microsoft and have easily gotten a program to pop up a window and then
display a roach looking bitmap within that window.  Close,  but not
quite.  I want those roaches on the background.  I looks like an icon
could do that and there is a program called cpuuse which changes an
icon dynamically so that might work, but can I move those icons
around on their own?

So, the net problem (no pun intended) is that I want to move a
bitmap/icon/what ever around the background.  Is it possible?  How do
I do it?

Thanks!!!
