How to create indicator/statusbar bar with vba access

 To create an indicator bar with VBA in Microsoft Access, you can use the StatusBar property of the Application object to display text or progress information in the status bar at the bottom of the Access window. Here is an example of how you can use the StatusBar property to create an indicator bar that shows the progress of a long-running operation:

Private Sub cmdStart_Click()

  ' Set the initial text for the status bar

  Application.StatusBar = "Processing... 0%"

  ' Perform a long-running operation

  For i = 1 To 100

    ' Do something

    DoEvents

    ' Update the status bar with the progress

    Application.StatusBar = "Processing... " & i & "%"

  Next

  ' Clear the status bar when the operation is complete

  Application.StatusBar = ""

End Sub

In this example, we are using a For loop to simulate a long-running operation, and updating the status bar with the progress of the operation by setting the StatusBar property to a string that shows the current progress.

You can also use the StatusBar property to display information or messages to the user. For example, you can use it to show the result of an operation or to provide the user with instructions on what to do next. Here is an example of how you can use the StatusBar property for this purpose:

Private Sub cmdShowResult_Click()

  ' Perform an operation and store the result

  Dim result As Integer

  result = DoSomething()

  ' Display the result in the status bar

  Application.StatusBar = "The result is: " & result

End Sub

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
