"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. It also gives the connection bandwidth."
Yes, this is definitely IE's doing and nothing that web
developers are writing themselves. Are you trying to
mimic this feature in a windows application or your own
web app?

Thanks for the post to Jerry and Nicholas.
Yes, this is a desktop/laptop C# application that syncs data from a
central datastore (SQL2000) using Web Services to upload a compressed
XML file with XML Schema info included. Zip file contains changed
records and new records from last upload date in xml format.
The user also downloads using a criteria of last download date and if
the record has changed since the last download.
That aside, I want to give the users in the field a pop up form,
similar to the one we all see when downloading files from the web.
Form should show file size, what has been uploaded both numeric and
progress bar format, and download speed that is occuring.
The question is, when using web services in C# what information can I
get
on what is happening during data transfer?
Are there any hooks in Web Services that I can use to either display
this information directly or is there information I can 'listen' to to
derive the information I want to display?(equations etc.)
