Hi all,

I would like to display some text in the status bar of forms. Is there a
quick and easy way? (I can't believe I just said that!)

Any help appreciated

Under what circumstances and what text? You can use the Status Bar Text
property for a control on the form to display text whenever the control has
the focus. You can use VBA programming to cause text to show in the Status
Bar using the SysCmd function:

Dim varReturn As Variant
' write text string to Status Bar
varReturn = SysCmd(acSysCmdSetStatus, "Text to be displayed")
' do other code steps here
'
' clear the text from the Status Bar
varReturn = SysCmd(acSysCmdClearStatus)
