exactly what I was looking for, thanks.
The concept of the interruptible mixin class is very interesting:
The idea of using a marquee type progress dialog was to show progress while
waiting on a post request of unknown time via an OLE object. The interrupt
method would now provide a means of interrupting that process at a user
request (e.g. cancel button). Up to now, I could only poll a cancelled flag
of the progress monitor, meaning that a cancel request from a user would
only have an effect either before the post request or *after* the post
request had finished (which in the worst case could be an indefinite length
of time until the OLE object gives up).
