@ DCSTATUSBAR is what you need.

You will see a sample by running XDEMO.

Hi Roger

How can I create a Main TOOLBAR containing Database Navigation "Up", "Next Record", Prev Record", "Bottom" in my main window that respond to table in different forms/dialogs
of my MDI application ?

If your child windows are running in other threads, the button activation will need to send a message to the window that is in focus.

I will write a sample program for you.

Hi Roger

Thanks alot for the sample program sent.

One more thing. How can I handle the WHEN {|| ...} of the DCADDBUTTON of the toolbar such that when the browse is at the top of the table in a particular thread, the
TOP caption is disabled.

You timely response will be greatly appreciated.
