The DataBox evidently dynamically accesses the bar on which the cursor is hovering. That is how it can update the values in the box.

I need to access and update text based on the bar number on which the cursor is resting or hovering over.

Does anyone know how to bet that information? I thought that it might be in the Bars property, but intellisense displays nothing that looks like it might be it.

I presume you wan to use it for a data box. Did you know that pressing the middle mouse button shows up a data box as well in NT7 ?
