>I have an application where I set _SCREEN=OFF and have my main form as the top level form. When I do this, I lose the status bar and my users can't see if their record is locked or unlocked. Is there a way I can show the status bar without setting _SCREEN=ON or a way I can show the record status without having to add tedious code to each one of my controls to check if the record status has changed?

The status bar is part of _SCREEN... you could implement some sort of bar on the bottom of your form to display information.
