Progressbar

edited May 2004 in General
Hello,

Am using RB7.03 and D5.

Is there a way to display a progressbar while the data is being accessed and
the pages are being calculated?

    Hi Nico,

    There is only one more problem.

    My preview form is displayed maximized and the form with the progressbar is
    put behind it. Is there anyway to display it in front? or on the Preview
    form itself?

    Thanks.

    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,

    Try calling Form.BringToFront in the OnScreenDevicePageReceive event to
    force the main form have focus. I am unsure about the timing of the form
    and progress bar events so you might have to play around with them a little
    to get the form to dissapear after the report has loaded.
