I am using Visual FoxPro V5.0. Can anyone suggest the best way to make a custom status bar?
I am looking for a Status Bar that will be permanently anchored to the bottom of my FoxPro screen but above the Win95 menu - and refreshes when the Win95 Menu is hidden/visible.
I have tried to created a custom Status Bar as a form without Title Bar and made it the same height as the text boxes. The text boxes contain information relative to my application which is updated as the application runs. I am having a problem locating the bottom of the FoxPro screen. My custom Status Bar seems to 'float' an inch or two over the Win95 Status Bar. It seems that I am not able to get an accurate reading from _screen.Height to correctly position the custom Status Bar.
