    I'm looking on how I could do to change the tooltip text of my application that appears in Windows taskbar. Something like IE does to reflect the currently displayed web page. Is there an API function to do so, or is is tricky ? Any help would be appreciated, thanks

      change the text in the title bar of the window. The tooltip will change accordingly..
