Description

Opens a dialog box that can be used to provide information to the user during macro execution. You can open only one dialog box for each Reflection session. This box remains visible until the CloseStatusBox method is used. You can update the dialog box message by calling StatusBox repeatedly using different values for the Text argument.

You can use the Options argument to add a title bar to the dialog box. This title bar allows the user to reposition the box on screen. You cannot include text within the title bar. For example:

.StatusBox "Please Wait", rcStatusBoxTitleBar
