Hello, does anybody have a bouncing prograssbar control?
Like in xp, you have a normal progressbar but instead of going from left to
right and fill out the whole progressbar and then stop.
I want it to go from left to right and then back from right to left, and
only showing about 10 steps at a time...
Meaning:
< - >
< - >
< ->
< - >
< - >
<- >
and so on...
AND, IT has to have xp look (Look like an progressbar does in xp)
Does anyone know where to find a control like this?

I replied to your other post ( you can easily implement the "bouncing",
too ):
I would take some screenshots of the XP one:
The Upper Left Border
The Upper Right Border
The Upper Middle Border
and so on, plus the actual progress "bars",
then combine them together in the Paint event.
The flickering can be solved by double buffering (draw to hidden surface,
then blit to screen).

Kristoffer,
I HIGHLY recommend you do not implement this "bouncing" progress bar. It is
extremely annoying as a user to see a progress bar go back and forth.
Progress bar are meant to indicate progress toward the completion of a goal.
I suggest you use the progress bar the normal way, but indicate "Step X of
Y" somewhere on the screen. I have also seen two progress bars used together
where one indicates the progress of a single step and the other indicates
overall progress.
Whatever you choose, remember that your users will be anxiously waiting for
your progress bars to "complete".

mmm...
The problem is, that This progressbar is there to inform the user that a
connection is beeing done to the internet...
Now, Its more or less impossible to predict how long the action will take,
and I want to make sure the end user knows that something is happening...
This kind of bar is the best kind of interface I come across lately and it
would really help me with my task...
Unfortunatly, I cant know how long it would take, because its a matter of
connecting to a webservice...

Does anyone know of a way to specify in the CDO.Message object that you
