I have a series of events happing in some code and as each one completes Id like a Progress bar to grow.. Ive made a new form with the bar and I call it up in the fist line of code (userform.show), at each place in the code I want the bar to grow I simply call it (userform.progressbar.width = 10, 20, 30.. Etc)

BUT....

When the UserForm shows, the code in the background halts until the userform is closed.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
Steve

I am new to using Visual C++. I used a Control box to create the progress bar in one file. In another file, I want to update the same progress bar so that it looks like it is downloading. How do I do that?
For example:
one file
Progress.cpp:
Member variable,pBar, is assigned to Progress Bar that was created by the Control box in the dialog box.

Update.Cpp
I want to update the progress bar in Progress.cpp so that it looks like I am downloading while I am sending information.
 

I have always liked John Walkenbach's approach to progress indicators because it uses tools that are available on everyones's PC (with MS Office installed), like Labels, Frames and TextBoxes:

J-Walk Progress Bars

P.S. This Thread should be in the VBA Forum

P.S.S. NewGuy100 . . . Your question should be in the C++ forum
