Description :

Simple use of progress bar control which is being used in many places. I have made a sample for login form.

VB.Net

Public Class Form1


    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim x As Integer
        If TextBox1.Text = "deepika" And TextBox2.Text = "pass" Then
            ProgressBar1.Visible = True
            ProgressBar1.Minimum = 1
            ProgressBar1.Maximum = 100000
            ProgressBar1.Value = 1
            ProgressBar1.Step = 1
            For x = 1 To 100000
                ProgressBar1.PerformStep()
            Next x
            Me.Hide()
            Form2.Show()
        Else : MsgBox("Wrong User ID or Password! Try Again!")
            TextBox1.Text = ""
            TextBox2.Text = ""
        End If
    End Sub
    Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
        Me.Close()
    End Sub
End Class

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int x = 0;
            if (textBox1.Text == "deepika" & textBox2.Text == "pass")
            {
                progressBar1.Visible = true;
                progressBar1.Minimum = 1;
                progressBar1.Maximum = 100000;
                progressBar1.Value = 1;
                progressBar1.Step = 1;
                for (x = 1; x <= 100000; x++)
                {
                    progressBar1.PerformStep();
                }
                this.Hide();
                frm.Show();
            }
            else
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Wrong User ID or Password! Try Again!");
                textBox1.Text = "";
                textBox2.Text = "";
            }
}

Hi,

As per one member's question I am posting another solution for the same post.

To show percentage along with the progress bar just need to add the following code within the for loop.


progressBar1.Refresh();
int percent = (int)(((double)progressBar1.Value / (double)progressBar1.Maximum) * 100);
                   progressBar1.CreateGraphics().DrawString(percent.ToString() + "%", new Font("Arial", (float)10.25, FontStyle.Regular), Brushes.Black, new PointF(progressBar1.Width / 2 - 10, progressBar1.Height / 2 - 7));

You can change width and height based on your requirement.
