Hello friends,

I am developing an.net windows application in which on click of a button i use to load all database names in one combo box.

But when i click on a button it takes 1 to 2 minutes time to load database names in combobox so, user has to wait for that much time.

Now i want to show a progress bar for this operation.

Can anybody tell guide me for same.

Thanks in advance.

Okay.... so do it. What sort of "guidance" are you wanting? How to find the progress bar in the toolbox? How to put it on a form? How to set the range?

no that i know. But i haven't used threads in my application so, am little bit confused to use progress bar without using threads. :-(

Check this example here:

However the best will be to adopt a lazy load for your combo or optimize your sql query.
