The following code example demonstrates how to use the Text property. To run the example, paste the following code in a form. Call the InitializeSimpleStatusBar method in the form's constructor or Load method.

   // Initialize a single-panel status bar.  This is done
   // by setting the Text property and setting ShowPanels to False.
private:
   void InitializeSimpleStatusBar()
   {
      
      // Declare the StatusBar control
      StatusBar^ simpleStatusBar = gcnew StatusBar;
      
      // Set the ShowPanels property to False.
      simpleStatusBar->ShowPanels = false;
      
      // Set the text.
      simpleStatusBar->Text = "This is a single-panel status bar";
      
      // Set the width and anchor the StatusBar
      simpleStatusBar->Width = 200;
      simpleStatusBar->Anchor = AnchorStyles::Top;
      
      // Add the StatusBar to the form.
      this->Controls->Add( simpleStatusBar );
   }

// Initialize a single-panel status bar.  This is done
// by setting the Text property and setting ShowPanels to False.

private void InitializeSimpleStatusBar()
{

    // Declare the StatusBar control
    StatusBar simpleStatusBar = new StatusBar();

    // Set the ShowPanels property to False.
    simpleStatusBar.ShowPanels = false;

    // Set the text.
    simpleStatusBar.Text = "This is a single-panel status bar";

    // Set the width and anchor the StatusBar
    simpleStatusBar.Width = 200;
    simpleStatusBar.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top;

    // Add the StatusBar to the form.
    this.Controls.Add(simpleStatusBar);
}

' Initialize a single-panel status bar.  This is done
' by setting the Text property and setting ShowPanels to False.
Private Sub InitializeSimpleStatusBar()

    ' Declare the StatusBar control
    Dim simpleStatusBar As New StatusBar

    ' Set the ShowPanels property to False.
    simpleStatusBar.ShowPanels = False

    ' Set the text.
    simpleStatusBar.Text = "This is a single-panel status bar"

    ' Set the width and anchor the StatusBar
    simpleStatusBar.Width = 200
    simpleStatusBar.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top

    ' Add the StatusBar to the form.
    Me.Controls.Add(simpleStatusBar)

End Sub
