Hi Raj,

--- This line turns the status bar ON ---
Application.SetOption "Show Status Bar", True

--- This line shows text on the status bar ---
SysCmd acSysCmdSetStatus, "This text shows on the Status Bar"

--- This line clears the status bar ---
SysCmd acSysCmdClearStatus

--- This line will hide the status bar ---
Application.SetOption "Show Status Bar", False

HTH

i have one more question?

when i open a form in the design view and click on properties for the form,
i believe there should be a StatusBarText property where in i can enter a
text msg.. for some reason i dont see that?
Am I doing something wrong?

Please help.
Thank you.

The StatusBarText property is available for controls, not forms.
