ProgressBar in a listbox?

[singhalvr]

Does anyone know how I can add a progress bar into a listbox in C# or
VB.NET?

I want to basically show a list of files that are transferring (or
have some operation being performed on them simultaneously) and use
the progress bar to show ... well ... progress.

Any ideas? (Example code would be perfect.)

Hi singhalvr,

you'll have to use an owner-drawn-listbox:

An example of how to implement a progressbar on another control (in this
case a status bar) can be found here:

It should be possible to "mix" these two examples together.

You could also just anchor the progress bar on the list control which would
give you a virtual effect of being owner drawn - not much programming
required in this case. In fact, many status bars i have seen do the same
thing instead of making the control owner drawn.
