- I've got a program that spends quite a while in a loop decompressing
- data so I added a message loop to it so that the user can minimize
- it and go to do other things. I would like to change the text so
- that it reflects how far along the process is (i.e. % complete).
- I tried using SetWindowText and it works fine if the program is
- not iconized, but it doesn't otherwise. Is there something else I
- have to do?
