Progressbar

[lee123]

Can some one tell me how i can add a progressbar to my project. Because right know i am using a animation picture. the progressbar i want to add has labels that tells how long it will take to finish and elapsed time.

I think first of all add a progress bar control to your project then calculate the total time to be taken to complete the required job and set it to maximum value of the progress bar. Now calculate elapsed time from start time as system time at start and (current system time - start time) as elapsed time which will be the current value of the progress bar. So elapsed time and remaining time will be displayed on progress bar.
If you have any other query please post the code to understand the problem exactly and give solution.

Ok I want to stick the code in this button if you can figure out how let me know

Private Sub cmdCopy_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Animation1.Open "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Graphics\Videos\filecopy.avi"
Animation1.Play
Dim fso As New Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim fld As Folder
Set fld = fso.GetFolder(txtSourceOfFolder)
fld.Copy (txtDestinationOfFile)
Animation1.Stop
Animation1.Visible = False
MsgBox "Transfer Completed!", , "Transfer Is Completed"
Me.Refresh
cmdExit.Enabled = True
txtSourceOfFolder.Text = ""
txtDestinationOfFile.Text = ""

How Can I stick A For..Next in this like

For P = 1 to 100
       Progressbar1.value = P
              For x = 1 to 100               
       Next x
Next P

or something like that.

where do i stick the code, i have never worked with "for...next" before don't know how it works..just seen on a web page.

How to add Animation is not known to me. However I will try to find out and add progressbar to it. The code for progress bar u have written will only increase the value of progressbar irrespetive of file size or time to be taken.

Dear lee
Please see my submission at Planet-source-code named CopyFolder_PBar with following URL:

Certainly it will give you idea about using Progress Bar in your project.
