Hello All,
Has anyone figured out how to have some kind of visual cue running on the
front panel so that people can tell the program is actually doing something?
Basically I need a progress bar that doesn't slow the program down too much.
I've tried the "tank," but it does slow things down.

Thanks.
Karen

Why don't you use the ProgressBar found in MS common control. You can use 'ProgressBar1.Value = XX' anywhere in the program to update/change the bar. If you set the value at various points throughout your test the user will get a visual indication how much longer the current process will take. I use this in many of my applications and have not noticed a time penalty at all.

Let me know if you need an example.

Cheers
