Changing Status Bar text in code?

[Dean]

Hi,

I am wanting to change the text of the status bar as I run through a
procedure. Does anyone know how this is done?

Thanks

Dean

Echo is the simplest way, e.g.:
DoCmd.Echo True, "Say what?"

You can also use SysCmd. Details in:

SysCmd acSysCmdSetStatus, "Your text here"
