One day maybe. I have built my own using just VFP but once again, it'd require a UDF to update so it's not used either.

Steve,
Sory for wrong addressing. I sure believe neither you nor Vladimir would use such a routine unless have a good reason to do so. I think even you and Vlad would use a timer to update the progbar and set final value upon sql completion (at least I would do like that - just to satisfy customer).
