ProgressBar while MDI child form is loading

[Thomas]

Hello,

I don't know if such question was already posted but I didn't find anything
through different posts.

I have the Main MDI window with a StatusBar. Inside my StatusBar there is a
ProgressBar. When I click on the menu in my MDI Parent, a child form is
loaded. I would like to know if there is a way to increment a progressbar
value while child form is loading ? I tried to use background worker but i
had some cross thread access exceptions. any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

You could expose a public method on your main window that allows you to write
the percentage to it from the child.

Check this out.. this should help you do what you want to do.

I use the marquee mode in the progress bar. and then hide/unhide it
as and when needed..
