        You can put a label in your status bar, and display a message in that as long as will fit in the label. I recommend against making it any longer than that. Users won't read such a message anyway.

          As Andre already said the status bar is not meant to display long text.

          Another option would be putting a label in the status bar to display a short summary of the text and having a tooltip set on the label, which shows the longer text.
