Default Progress Bar

What's not working? Using a custom progressbar in a userform is no
cakewalk...actually I find them to be kind of unusable, since they basically
take away the notion of modular programming and bind otherwise independent
processes directly to a userform. They have to call home to mommy all the
time and let her know what they done. Not always as easy as it sounds...what
is not working with your trial?

I need is a basic progress bar to show the user the status.


So far I have a created a basic user form with two lables (1 has a
width = to 0). How can I have the status bar popup once the user
presses the start button and then update in different places in my
code rather than trying to create a loop for it.


Can someone post sample code for this


Thank you for all of your help

I have tried this site and many others just like it and none of them
fit my situation. I didn't expect this to be too difficult, but it
seems to be very difficult. I cannot find anything on the web that
will will help. I tried modifing all of the example codes but all
have failed and has caused my excel to lockup in many cases.

Has anyone done this before??

Thank you for all of your help
