Acutally there is another way of doing it. This is the one that I use, it's kinda easy so I like it. Give it a shot.
1. As obvious Add a TStatusBbar named Status to the form
2. Add a TProgressBar named ProgBar to the form
3. Set Visible property to false
4. In FromCreate function add these lines
ProgBar->Parent = Status;
ProgBar->Height = Status->Height - 7;
ProgBar->Width = Status->Panels->Items[0]->Width - 5;
5. Then use it like a normal progress bar except that when you use it remember to set Visible to true and when you are done... you know ;)
