What exactly do you want to show the progress of? Opening a file only
takes a few milliseconds, normally. Processing the file might take much
longer, depending on what you are doing with it. If you want to show a
progess bar for that, I'd wait until the "save dialog" is closed and
then open another (my own) form that has a progress bar on it.

Hi,

IIRC the common dialogs are sealed so you cannot extend it.

What you can do is prompting the dialog to create the file then close it and
open a new dialog where you have your progress bar ( a la win explorer)

Again drawing on the groups experience:- 1. For general file opening and file saving, using VB6, are there any issues with using the FileOpen and FileSave Common Dialog Boxes? 2. Is using the FileOpen and FileSave Common Dialog Boxes the best way to go in general? 3. For Most of my projects I will be using the same types of data input form and report output form, as discussed here recently. Also, the files that are

Everytime I download a file from the web I get a nice animated dialogue box that shows the size of the file, how much has been received and the approximate remaining time.

The closest I've come is my local web developer says the Internet Explorer is the application...

Hi, I'm writing a little application that scans a large number of media files for processing. The main application currently uses a backgroundworkerprocess to perform the scan. Each media file has meta data extracted and is added to one of a range of lists (pseudo-queues) for later processing. This is all fine. But, I want to provide more feedback to the end user as to progress as the process takes a considerable time.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
