    I have created a report generator in delphi. Basically there are 4 filters that the user selects from, they then click generate and the form is printed.
    Because of the size of the database i am working with the delay between clicking generate and the report displaying can be a few seconds.

    I want to use a ProgressBar to indicate how far the process is. I found these examples:

    Im just not sure what i would use as a counter, they use the fileSize but im not transferring a file, im just getting entry's from a DB. Any ideas?

    Cheers
    Endo

    Maybe you could base it on the number of records processed instead of bytes?
