I am trying to find out how to make the icon of a minimized 
application display data.

For example the clock program that comes with Windows 3.1 shows
the current time in it's icon when it is minimized.
Does anybody out there know how this is done ?

I'm using TPW ver 1.5 with Whitewater Resource Toolkit.
