Window Title, Message Line, and Status Line

You can get information about the current window by viewing any of the following:

Window Title: A title along the top of a window that displays the name of the window and, where applicable, context information pertinent to the information in the window.

For example, if you open the Account Detail window for the account Technology Inc. in Santa Clara, the window title displays:

Message Line: A line near the bottom left of the window that displays hints or warning messages when you encounter an error.

Status Line: A line below the message line that displays status information about the current window or field.

For example, if you are in Enter Query mode the status line displays the phrase Enter Query. If you are in a field that has a list of values available, the status line displays the message <List>.
