Yes you can devide a status bar. The below code shows how I use half the status bar for text and half for a progress bar.
$Status = $W->AddStatusBar( -name => "Status", -text => " ", -font => $SFont, ); $Progress = new Win32::GUI::ProgressBar($Status, -name => "Progress", -width => $Status->Width/2, -height => $Status->Height-3, -left => $Status->Width/2, -top => 2, ); Regards, Eric Garland, Texas USA
