Visual Studio, Would like to add a progress bar that I control the time.

[ReneWilson]

Ok, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but here goes... oh yeah, first time poster, can I get a whoop whoop.

Im a newbie and am still learning, but heres what kind of code Im looking for:
In Visual Studio, Im looking to create a Indeterminate Progress Bar and I want to figure out what code I could use. The twist is, I have created a form and I want to enter a number (in minutes) on my form and then the progress bar increments to 100% in that time limit that I entered.

Sorry if this is as clear as muddy water. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello!

Hear is one simple code and easy to learn from this.

Add in your form:
one label
one progressbar
one texbox
one button

and put this code:

Public Class Form1
Dim ellapsedminutes As Integer = 0
Dim ellapsedseconds As Integer = 0

Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
ProgressBar1.Minimum = 0
ProgressBar1.Maximum = TextBox1.Text * 60

ellapsedseconds = ellapsedseconds + 1
If ellapsedseconds > 59 Then ellapsedminutes = ellapsedminutes + 1 : ellapsedseconds = 0
ProgressBar1.Value = ellapsedseconds

Label1.Text = ellapsedminutes & " min " & ellapsedseconds & " sec"

If ellapsedminutes = TextBox1.Text Then
Timer1.Enabled = False
Label1.Text = "Finish"

' put hear everything else u like to do at the end

End If

End Sub

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
TextBox1.Text = 1

Timer1.Interval = 1000
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'reset all and start from the begining
ellapsedminutes = 0
ellapsedseconds = 0
ProgressBar1.Value = 0
Label1.Text = ellapsedminutes & " min " & ellapsedseconds & " sec"
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub

End Class
