The status bar is an area at the bottom of the Main window that displays error messages, system information, and the progress of lengthy work processes.

The left-hand corner of the status bar displays field names, the number of characters for each field, and error messages. In addition, if you have selected View menu ® System Information, the database information for each field on a form appears. For example, the name of the database table, the number of the form for a particular field, and the position of that field in a table.

The central area of the status bar displays date and time.

The right-hand corner of the status bar displays input fields that you drag to that area. For example, you can drag the name and telephone number of your vendor’s contact person to the right side of the status bar.

In addition, you can view the progress of lengthy processes in the status bar. For example, a report being executed, or a search running.
