Adjusting the Clock in Windows XP to display full Time and Date

I am trying to get the clock in Windows XP Pro (SP2) to display fully the
date and time instead of just the time. I did this before, but I can't
figure out how to do it again. :-\ I am using the Classic style of windows
appearance (Red White and Blue), if that makes any difference. Can anyone
help me with this?

Example: My clock reads

"02:04"

(24-hour setting), I want it to read

"02:04
Tuesday
July 8, 2008"

(full date and 24-hour time)

N/m. I found it. My apologies.

TheOldDummy,
1. Right click the Taskbar.
2. Click to Unlock the Taskbar.
3. Click and hold your mouse pointer over the top edge of the taskbar.
4. Drag up to Increase the height of the taskbar.
5. Repeat steps #1 & #2, but this time Lock the taskbar.

Expand the taskbar further. If you want to see time, day, and date, and you
have the taskbar on the bottom of the screen, you must expand it to show 3
lines. If you have the taskbar on the side of the screen, the taskbar must be
extended to show the width of the date (X/XX/XXXX).

Thast means I lose desktop area considerably. TClockX will display all and more
within the single width of the taskbar. In fact it can show you the free memory
available too at all times in the tray.
