Hi Rod, You have to create a dialog, and add your progress bar as a control to it.
The other thing some apps do is to give regular "bleeps" while processing, using the audio toolkit or a .wav file, or even a series of .wav files if you want to indicate a percentage by the tone. This has the advantage of not popping up a dialog to take the user away from what they were doing, if all they did was to press a hotkey. If you have a dialog up already of course, then there's no real advantage. I'm sure a dialog with a progress bar is preferred by those who are deaf-blind, or otherwise don't want their audio interrupted.

I'm thinking of those situations where we want to mark time while a process is occurring. Thanks, Rod
