Label does not paint with a progressbar on a windows form

[Guest]

I have created a .net dll that reads a datatable and writes it to a
spreadsheet. I want a progressbar to display while writing the datatable
rows to the spreadsheet, that part works, however I also have a label on the
form with the progressbar and the label does not get painted on the form.
When the dll runs the label does not appears. I wanted to change the text of
label to say "Please wait." and then "Finished!" Does somebody know why the
label does not appear and how can I get the label to appear?
