Dang, my status bar text doesn't update. It's got just one panel and it
always shows the text I set at design time. ("Ready").

All I am doing is:

Private Sub btnOK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles btnOK.Click

            'Do stuff

            sbr.Panels(0).Text = "The update has been saved."

        End Sub

Hi,

Did you set the "showPanels" property to true?

This is VB.NET code and not C# basically. But create an project and insert
all these files and play with it.

I'd check to see if an exception is thrown. If one is thrown, the
control is going to swallow it up. My guess is that you don't have a panel
set up correctly.
