Re: Marquee or Scrolling Text message in Statusbar using VB6

use a timer to move your text.

put this inside your timer event.

label1.left=label1.left + 1

if label1.left = (*to where you want the marquee to be e.g. 500) then

label1.left=(*label1.left before you start for example 5)

end if

just set your timer1.enabled=1,ok?
