status bar support

   I love your controls, especially the ability to mimic office 2003 style. 
Is there a way to create an office 2003-style status bar? The VB status bar doesn't fit into this new layout.

	Thanks! But is there a way to insert a date or time field? Or would I have to do that manually?

	I now use the standard MS status bar for a number of reasons. Question: How can I determine if a menu item was selected so I can show the corresponding info in the status bar? ControlSelected seems to do the job but how do I get notified when the control loses the focus (so I can erase the status info)?

	Try setting the DescriptionText property of the control. This should automatically be displayed in the status panel with Id 0.
