StatusStrip control question

Is there a way to add just a button to a statusstrip control? They have
the splitbutton and dropdown button, but I don't want the dropdown part. I
just need a simple button.
You can set the DropDownButtonWidth to 0 for the splitbutton, but this
doesn't get rid of the arrow.
The DropDownButton does have a ShowDropDownArrow property, but when you
click on the button, you don't get the 3D effect of the button depressing.
The button just turns white.
So is there a way to make the SplitButton or DropDownButton act and look
like a regular button, or add a button to the StatusStrip control?

Thanks

   I'll answer my own question in a way.  Instead of using a StatusStrip
control, I used a FlowLayout control and dropped buttons into it.  Thisworks
dandy.

Or you could have just used the StatusBar DropDownButton and set it's
ShowDropDownArrow property as false.
