I tried finding tutorials on google but all I came up was with the 2003 and not the 2005 version. None of the 6 books on C# have anything about the progress bar in the statusstrip or the other progress bar. Can anyone explain how to do it, if you don't mind?

add a statusstrip, then click on the little down arrow on the left of it and select the progressbar

Well I am going to assume that it is inherited from the standard Progress Bar in the C# GUI tools. You have a function called Step() and a member called Value for the progress bar if that is the case, use them accordingly, it should be relatively simple.

You'll likely have to start multithreading to get it to updated properly.

Not true. Here is a small snippet from something I have that uses a progress bar.

(Toggle Plain Text)

        public void sendMessages()
        {
            int i;

            _progress.Step = 100 / _numberOfMessages;
            for (i = 0; i < _numberOfMessages; i++)
            {
                try
                {
                    _client.Send(_email);
                    _progress.PerformStep();
                }
                catch (Exception e)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(e);
                    break;
                }
            }

            MessageBox.Show("Sent " + i + " messages");
        }
