[Solved] Progress bar dialog box problem

[jgsylvester]

I am attempting to get a progress bar dialog box to work. I copied the ProgressBarDemo() macro from http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wik ... ogress_Bar to a an openoffice.org base database. When I run this macro, I get the following error "BASIC runtime error. An exception occurred. Type:com.sun.star.containr.NoSuchEelement Mesasage:" at the follwoing line from the macro " oProgressBarModel = oDialog.getModel().getByName( "Dialog1" )" I hve defined a progress bar dialog form named Dialog1. I am not certain what BASIC cannot find getModel() or getByName(). Do I have to define a macro with thius name?

I realized that the line should have read "oProgressBarModel = oDialog.getModel().getByName( "ProgressBar1" )" to coincide with tha actual name "ProgressBar1" defined in the Dialog1 form. Now my issue is how to call the demo during an actual dabase "tranaction". I wish to show progress bar during an import transaction from an another spreadsheet.

I guess I am asking how to increment progress bar as I import each record.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will investigate these.

I think I will execute the necessary statements in the in-line function that is doing the updaing. Thanks for the suggestions.
