Thanks your answer! Iuse serv pack 3. I dont use the two other control you mentioned.
I made some experiment with this progress bar. So, I can be more precise now.
I made a form only aprogress bar on it. I put a timer on it. The activate event of the form enables the timer and the timer event makes the work which should change the state of the progress bar. (The waiting time of timer is independent of the problem. I tried 0.1s-5s) In exe vesion the progress bar control doesnot appear.(stays invisible, but the form is became visible, and the progressbar object exist, and visible propery is .t.)

But if I use a normal proc., and the proc creates the form as object with a progress bar on it and the proc itself makes the work and thus changes the progressbar state, there is no problem.
Does it mean that a working process cannot be in the form, which contains the progress bar?

TIA
