FileCopy and ProgressBar

[SurveyorinVA via AccessMonster.com]

Good morning-
Is there a way to display a progress bar when using the VB command FileCopy?

Thanks,
CF

No. The FileCopy method doesn't return any updates about how much it's
copied.

You could look into using the SHFileOperation API. That will provide the
same visual feedback Windows does (although you know how accurate that is!

Sorry, but I don't have a clean example to which I can point you. The code
in http://www.answers.com/topic/files uses SHFileOperation, but it does more
as well.
