writing to system tray

Hello,

I am currently writing a C++ MFC app in .NET that will
some day write free system memory as a number represented
by a system tray (taskbar status area) icon. I can make
my application minimize to an icon, but cannot find a way
to make the icon "dynamic", without having a seperate
icon for each number. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Nate
