Hi Claude,

>I do not have any code for status bar yet. I have Stonefield Database Toolkit and was planning on using their progress bar. Open to alternatives.

I would just create a form class, add an OLE object to it, choose MS progress bar control and save it.

Then before your scan call.

oBar=newobject('myclass', 'mylib')
oBar.show()

and use

oBar.StatusBarName.Max=RECCOUNT()
oBar.StatusBarName.Value=oBar.StatusBarName.Value+1

That should be it. Of course you'll have to release it when your done. Let me know if you'll need anymore help. Play around with the bars properties to make it look like you want it!
