Progress bar issue

[Former Member]

Hey All,

I have reported the progress bar exception issues to SAP support. I know alot of us have posted about exceptions coming from the progress bar object. SAP support is now asking me how they can replicate this issue. As it only happens for me intermitently I am unable to give them a specific example.

Does anyone have some code or a set of steps I can tell them to follow to replicate the exception problem with the progress bar?

I don't have code to replicate the problems.

But I also have had a lot of problems with it, that I stopped using them.

I place a status message when I start and one when I'm finished.

It's not as good, but the customer doesn't get random errors anymore from the progressbar

Hey Francis,

Does this give you the hour glass cursor? This is the part that is most important to our users. It tells them the system is doing something

Anyone know how I can get the hour glass to show up without using the progress bar to tell the user the system is busy?

Hi Curtis,

Try something like:

Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor 'Hourglass 

Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default    'Default

Hope helps,

Thanks Ibai,

When I try that it only seems to appear for a second and then business one sets it back to the arrow. Seems kind of weird.
