* Peter Fitzsimmons got everyone's attention by mumbling this to Martin Pollard:

 PF> Prominare Designer contains the source code to all of its [pmcx]
 PF> controls. There is a "lite" version of PD on recent
Devcon cd's,  and
 PF> I think that too has the source code. 

 PF> The sources are also included with URE (which is a super-lite version
 PF> of PD),  which is included with IBM's Warp programmer's toolkit (also
 PF> on the devcon). 

Thanks for the tips, Peter.  I checked 'em out, and while there's a lot of
good stuff there (LOTS of goodies!), nothing seemed to be exactly what I was
looking for.  So, I bit the bullet and wrote it myself. :-)  It took some
doing, but I finally was able to get it to do exactly what I wanted.  Also, I
tried to base it as much as possible on the Win32 status bar control, to make
any potential cross-platform coding easier.

If anyone's interested, I can post the source here.  I'd be more than
interested in getting outside opinions on it, as well as suggestions for
improvements and critiques of problems, both real and potential.  I also
figure that other struggling PM programmers might find it useful. :-)
