I'm not sure how to do this with ASP but I know it can be achieved with
www.softartisans.com component FileUp.
I am still learning asp.net so am not sure if there is a way to do this but I expect
there will be, just finding it !!

ps let us know how you get on.
Adding a Server-Side Progress Indicator
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FileUp includes a server-side progress indicator, that can be displayed to the user
using HTML. The server-side progress indicator lets you know how much of the entire
upload has arrived at the server. In an upload from the browser to an ASP page,
include the progress indicator in a separate ASP page. In this page, you can get and
display to the user:
The Percentage of the upload that has reached the server.
TotalBytes in the upload.
TransferredBytes so far.
You can use HTML techniques to customize the output effect, and display a counter or a
progress bar.
The following lines are from an application that contains three scripts: form.asp,
formresp.asp and progress.asp. Form.asp submits the file to the upload processing page
formresp.asp. Progress.asp contains the progress indicator.
Form.asp
...
<%
'--- Instantiate the FileUpProgress object.
Set oFileUpProgress = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUpProgress")
'--- Get the next available progress ID.
'--- The progress ID is how the progress indicator and FileUp
'--- sychronize with each other.
intProgressID = oFileUpProgress.NextProgressID
%>
...
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">
<i>/*
This function makes sure that the progress indicator and server-side
processing page receive the new progress ID we just created. Also, it pops up the
progress window.
*/</i>
function startupload() {
winstyle="height=150,width=500,status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no";
window.open("progress.asp?progressid=<%=intProgressID%>",null,winstyle);
document.theForm.action="formresp.asp?progressid=<%=intProgressID%>";
}
</script>
