[AccessD] Queries Progress Bar

Hi William

Nope, you have to do something yourself! ... Isn't a progress bar a standard component of Visual Studio? Or Stuart may have a micro implementation using PowerBasic.

I just got the idea as I remember someone having success playing an audio file launched by a Shell command while Access continues to run.

...and you just happen to have a working sample of this? :)
