STATUS BAR README.TXT
---------------------

   If your like me, you wait until the end of a project to document everything.
Unfortunately, Access 2.0 has no utility to move a table's field descriptions
to the Status Bar Text property of current fields.  Also, the field's
Description property isn't easy to reach.  By combining some example code, I
was able to construct this utility that moves field descriptions of bound
fields to the Status Bar Text property for further refinement.  Saves a lot of
cut and pasting.

   To use:
   
   1.) Import the module 'Status Bar Utilities' into your program database.
       ( found in stat_bar.mdb ).
   
   2.) Open the desired form in Design View
   
   3.) Go to the Immediate [!] window and enter:
   
       SetFieldCaption Me
       
   Note:  only bound fields with null values in the StatusBarText property
          are updated.
          
   Enjoy
