Progress Meter

[ChrisPanet]

Hi all, is there anyway that i can create a 'progress meter' to show the status of a task being performed?

Im talking about something like the one you get in the bottom left hand corner when you run a query or do a compact and repair.

I am wanting to display the meter on a form, any ideas guys?

Thanks in advance
Chris

Hi. Have you tried searching these forums for an answer? I searched in both this forum and the Forms forum on "Progress Meter" and found multiple solutions. Give it a try!

Yes i have! And i wouldn't post a question before posting.

All the topics pre-posted do not describe what i am trying to achieve, if you look at the following link you might get a better idea as to what i am after....

ChrisPanet,

Here is a sample MDB that may help.

Uses no API's or OCX.


Just another option..
