Hi,
I was asked several times about a progress bar. I haven't seen too many documented examples, so I thought I fast put together a db with a couple of different variations. Maybe some other people would find this helpful and useful for their applications.
You can use progress bars when opening a DB, running queries, opening forms... Any time you want the user to have some kind of visual confirmation about the progress. Don't let the user unknowingly sit in front of your application.
I create the db in ACC 2000 and it worked fine. I did not have time to test in other versions, sorry.
Feel free to provide feedback via private message.
Thanks and have a good day,
Freak
