progress bar

[Guest]

Hi,

I am running this command that takes a couple of minutes to complete. While
this command is running, I would like to run a progress bar along the bottom
of the form to show how far it is until the command to complete. I know I
have to create a new thread timer but I am not sure how to do it.

Is there a short way to solve my problem?

Thanks
