Attachments +ProgressBar

[McKaulick]

Hi all, I have a simple WindowsForm app that send images selected on the disk by email! I want to have a progress bar that increment as long as the app is sending the mail. How can I do that?

///// For info
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mailMessage);

The SmtpMail class has no event that will advise you of it's progress.

If you really want to provide the user some feedback, the best you'll do is throw up a fake progress indicator (use one of the avi files in the common7\graphics directory) that is run on another thread.

Where is the common7/graphics directory? How can I get that? Are you talking of the System.Windows.Forms.ProgressBar?

If you did a default install of VS.NET, it's:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\Graphics\videos
