I really do not know if this belong here but the other groups did not seem
to fit either, so here goes.

I want to use acSysCmdInitMeter, acSysCmdUpdateMeter, and acSysCmdSetStatus.

The first two to get the meter (blue dots) and the setstatus to change the
words. They don't seem to go together. Can they?
 
acSysCmdInitMeter takes a text argument, so you don't need
acSysCmdSetStatus.

Here's an excerpt from the help file:

strMsg = "Reading " & UCase$(strTableName) & "..."
' Display message in status bar.
varReturn = SysCmd(acSysCmdInitMeter, strMsg, lngCount)
For lngX = 1 To lngCount
' Update meter.
varReturn = SysCmd(acSysCmdUpdateMeter, lngX)
. ' Do something with record.
