DataBinding statusBarPanel

[rich_wenger]

There seems to be no direct way to databind to a StatusBarPanel; I've run across some incomplete code samples that advises using a method to create a property for the statusBarPanel and then use the new property to databind to the dataset. The problem is I don't know how to proceed from there. Any help greatly appreciated. Code Snippet ========================================================== public string StatusBarPanel1Text { get { return statusBarPanel1.Text; } set { statusBarPanel1.Text = value; } }

In you Form do the following StatusText st = new StatusText(); st.StatusBarPanel1Text = "HELLO"; this.statusBar1.DataBindings.Clear(); this.statusBar1.DataBindings.Add( new Binding("Text", st, "StatusBarPanel1Text")); Declare the class public class StatusText { private string str; public string StatusBarPanel1Text { get { return str; } set { str = value; } } }

Hi, Thanks for responding to my issue; I tried your suggestion and it doesn't seem to work for me. I get no errors but the statusBarPanel remains unaffected.
