ARProgBar.ocx
"ARProgBarCtrl.ARProgressBar"
If you don't have it let me know & I'll email it to you...

A real cheap way to solve the problem is to update a label:

' In your loop

lblProgress.Caption = nPercent & "% complete"
DoEvents

Fair warning: if you use DoEvents, disable the button the
user pressed to kick off the processing or they might press
it again and start it all over. If you don't use DoEvents,
the label most likely will not update leaving you right you
started.

If you're not opposed to third party controls, visit
http://www.mvps.org/ccrp and grab a free copy of their
ProgressBar control.

Who is the author and what are the licensing terms?

BTW, if you like, you can also use AutoCAD's own progress
bar (the one in the status bar). There are several
applications that expose it to VBA including my own
vbXtender freeware. You can get a copy in the Downloads
section of my site.

It simply was installed when I installed AutoCAD 2000i

I have 2000i on my workstation but no ArProgbar.ocx. You may
want to do a little checking before you distribute ant
copies of it.

nPercent would be an integer value that you increment within your
loop.
