Hello everybody,
i have done a vb6 project whicjh required a progress bar to run
parallely to the datachecking which occured in the background. But at
there it was ot possible. Now i want to know that wether it is possible
to run a progress bar in the same form and to do the checking of the
excel data sheets in the back ground.

I know that we have the multitasking in vb.net but if it is possible to
run a progress bar to run with the checking or with the file transfer
event please send me some coding help

thanks in advance.
Your's Faithfully,
Varun.

Gabriel,

The first thing you need beside all technique with a progressbar is the time
it will take.

You describe in my idea a process that does not have that, than all
approaches will fail..

In other words you will probably need a lot of work to give the user wrong
information.

Do the same as Microsoft and others in the case of that: use a gif or an avi
to show that the process is busy and block the UI than you don't even spent
processing time.

Just my thought when I was reading your question.
