Yes, good video! Developers, put those status boxes on every form and use it instead of cumbersome msgbox. Use them for information, entry errors, etc. I even created a crude progress bar there, since some of my updates use VBA DAO in a form.

Dang, for years I've hunted down functions and subroutines using Find. And there it is, Definition, which I never paid attention to. Doh!

Below is an image of the "progress bar" stuffed into the status box. Double clicking on the status box will also enlarge it, as well as do a Stop for developers, so they can easily inspect variables.
