Good morning Craig,

>I'm assuming from your code that you are using the progressbar as a class that is not compiled into a COM Server.

Correct.

Take that class (making sure it is OLEPublic still) and place it into a prg file in a seperate empty project. Then, compile your new project as a COM Server (EXE) in VFP. So, let's say your COM Server exe is named "progress.exe"... then you can instantiate it from your main application using loProgress = CreateObject("Progress.ProgressIndicator") - the code from your main application is little different than what you have now except for this change in how it gets instantiated.

That works great! Thanks for taking the time to explain this to my OOP-challenged brain (that still reverts to dBase and FP/DOS all to easily). One more technique added to my FoxToolBox.

That might make a good addendum to your FAQ.

Thanks!
