Showing a progress dlg in VB?

[SPRobson]

Hi All

I've a bit of VB code (a For loop) that takes some time to run (about 2-3 mins typically) and I want to show a progress dialog (i.e. a small dialog with a progress bar and message) whilst this code runs. Is this possible? If so, how do I do it?

Hi,

Add the common controls to your project (MSCOMCLT.OCX).
Now you can add a progressbar to your form.
Set the progressbars max property to initialise and then the value property as you go along.

Hi

Is there a VB equivalent of the CProgressCtrl in C++?

Yes. As I wrote above.
