You are correct. I'm asking about the Status bar, not
the Toolbar. Both Mail and projectBuilder has it, it
looks the same, i figured there might some API out
there for it i just could not find it. Maybe Ali could
give us the definitive word on this. If there is (and
won't be) an API, that's fine, I'll just implement
one. I just did not want to reinvent the wheel.
Thanx!
