Adding Text Next To Your Clock On Your Taskbar(XP)

Hey all time for a new thing to add your own flavor to Windows XP Task Bar. Today we will be putting text next to the clock. It's really simple to do and doesn't take all that long.

From Category View:

  • first open control panel
  • select date, time, language, and regional settings
  • then select change the format of numbers, dates and times
  • then on the Regional Options tab next to the language click Customize
  • then click on the time tab
  • then in the time format box click before the h (i.e. h:mm:ss tt)
  • then type in your personal message like this 'insert what you want here'
  • hit apply, close out that box
  • click apply again, your message should show up, click ok



From Classic View:

  • open control panel
  • select the Regional and Languages icon
  • then on the Regional Options tab next to the language click Customize
  • then click on the time tab
  • then in the time format box click before the h (i.e. h:mm:ss tt)
  • then type in your personal message like this 'insert what you want here'
  • hit apply, close out that box
  • click apply again, your message should show up, click ok


That's it your done, I thought this was worth sharing but people probably know about how to do this already.
