+    @remarks
+    Notice that only the first 127 characters of a string will be shown in
+    status bar fields under pre-XP MSW systems (or even under later systems if
+    a proper manifest indicating that the program uses version 6 of common
+    controls library is not used). This is a limitation of the native control
+    on these platforms.
