SUMMARY
=======

In the Microsoft Productivity Pack for Windows operating system version 3.1 you
have the ability to minimize the application to an icon at the bottom of the
screen. The minimized icon does not react like other icons in the Windows
environment, and cannot be moved. You can, however, restore the icon by choosing
the Restore command from the Control menu, or by double-clicking the icon.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The reason the icon cannot be moved like other icons in the Windows environment
is because while running the Productivity Pack you are in a simulated Windows
environment. The functionality to minimize the icon is also simulated, and
therefore does not operate like other icons in all respects.
