Hi Paul,

I don't think there is a message to hook which will make this easy. The 
way I handled it was to create a thread. A program I made has to watch 
the time to see if any alarms need to go off. The thread basically does 
a DosSleep(3000); (3 seconds), wakes up and checks the time and see if 
any alarms are to be sounded;  also what it does is keep a specific 
window floating by doing....

  WinSetWindowPos( winhwnd, HWND_TOP, 0,0,0,0, SWP_ZORDER );

This is done every 3 seconds in my timer loop which is in my timer 
thread. Its much easier to have a thread which just loops rather than 
trying to work in a call to WinSetWin... into your main program logic.

Hope this helps,
Eric
