    VB Message Box

    Hi

    I have a process running which copies a database to 2 different locations, this is fine but I am wanting to know if there is anyway of creating a Msgbox or something similar to inform the user that there is a process being carried out. At the moment it looks like nothing is happening.

    I then have a Msgbox at the end of the process saying everything copied successfully.

    Thanks in advance

    have a label and set its text to "Started"
    like thie

    label1.text = "Started"
    label1.refresh

    at the top of the code

    then at the end of the code

    put

    label1.text = "Finished"
    label1.refresh

    That works for me


    Example -vb2005

    [code=text]
    label1.text = "Started"
    label1.refresh

    Process to be run

    label1.text = "Stopped"
    label1.refresh
    [/code]

      .. Or you can show a progress bar.

        Check in howto's section. You will find my thread if not then search for Custom MsgBox you will find a better msgbox which you can easily modify for your needs.
