Display timecode in Video Preview?

I am a new user of Vegas 5. Currently, my Video Preview window shows the frame number being played instead of the timecode. Does anyone know how to change this setting so that the timecode appears instead? There's got to be a way, right? I appreciate any assistance!

The actual timecode is displayed above the track view on the left and just below the track field on the right (above the explorer/bus).

Ditto on what Jessariah says. And if you really want it to be below / near / over the preview window, you're in luck -- 'cause it's dockable / undockable. Just click-n-drag the five dots to the left of the timecode to undock the window it's in. You can then move and resize it however you want. Just be careful when you're moving it near other windows (including the preview window) -- itll re-dock itself there and take on the size / shape of the windows underneath it. If that happens, just undock it again.
