Here is the sample code. In design mode set the Enable status of the timer control to false. Set the progress bar properties minimum maximum step (in my case they are 0100 10 respectively) When you click the button set the progress bar value to zero and enable timer. private void button2_Click( object sender EventArgs e) { progressBar1.Value = 0; timer1.Enabled = true ; } On the timer tick event step the progress bar(you can also use other methods of progress bar like increment value etc). After reaching the maximum value set the enabled property to false. private void timer1_Tick( object sender EventArgs e) { progressBar1.PerformStep(); if (progressBar1.Value >= 100) timer1.Enabled = false ; } The above method is used when you know amount of work/time. Whenever the status changes step the progress bar in the above code when timer ticks for 10 times. If you are not sure about the amount of work/time set the style property of the progress bar to marquee.
