Looking for Mr. Status Bar

Note: You may use any of the files in the STATUS.ZIP file to create
your own compiled programs, which you may distribute free of any
charge or royalty.

The STATDEMO program and related files demonstrate how to add a status
bar as a child window to an ObjectWindows (OWL) program.

To compile STATDEMO, use Borland C++ for Windows 3.1 to create a
project named STATDEMO.PRJ. (A sample .PRJ file is included in the
ZIP file.) Add STATDEMO.CPP first to the project window, then add the
other files. Specify STATDEMO.RC for BCW 3.1.  For BCW 3.0, specify
STATDEMO.RES instead of STATDEMO.RC.

Run the program and try its menus and commands. The commands are
dummies, so feel free to play. Use the File|Exit command to quit.

For more information about the files, see my column "Shades of
Windows" appearing regularly in PC TECHNIQUES. Enjoy!

ObjectWindows programming, with Windows 3.1 TrueType and
common-dialog sample programs. A high-density disk is included with
the book. (A 3.5-inch replacement disk is available on request from
