I use to work in dev-c++, now i work in borland/visual c++. Both VC++ and Borland C++ decided to take out CreateStatusWindow(). << arg!, can someone tell me how to create a status window in borland/vc++(preferably borland). Also how do I make one of those "seperators" in menus/status bars. How can I append the text of the status bar as well?(some thing like WM_SETTEXT, but for staus bars). Please try to answer, any help is appreciated:-)
