progressBar synchronized to run with system clock

ok fellas,
it's the wannaBe again with another lame queation.
I have a little program thats due in at school today and I'm still on it
after 2 wks!!
it's really beating me up and I'm gettin to the point of no return.
I have put a progressBar on my app and it is supposed to start running in
sync with the system clock when I click a start button. it is supposed to
stay running and displaying the little blue dots until such time as I click
the stop button.HOW in the world is this accomplished?? it don't have to do a
thing.just sit there and display those little dots until I click the stop
button. I already have a timespan structure in the app that holds the
difference between start time and stop time then displays the time interval
in a textBox when I click stop. but while this same time interval is
advancing my progressBar is supposed to be running to show the user that the
thing is still working and not froze up.as it is now you can't tell whether
the app is running or not until you press the stop button and the numbers
fill in. HELP !!!

I suggest you look at using a timer. Maybe that would be something you can
check out. Each time the timer fires, you can advance your progressbar.
