Here Some tips to use the Progress bar.

Set the maximum value of the progressbar:



    ProgressBar1.Maximum = 100

Set the number of points the progressbar should step by each time an operation is complete:


    ProgressBar1.Step = 1

In your loop operation that completes the process, perform a step operation each time the process is complete for each loop:


    For x = 0 To n
        'Do operation
        ProgressBar1.PerformStep()
   Next


Reset the progress bar when the loop is complete:


    ProgressBar1.Value = 0

So your whole code should look something like this:


    ProgressBar1.Maximum = 100
    ProgressBar1.Step = 1
    For x = 0 To n
        '
        '
        'Insert your statements here...
        '
        '
        ProgressBar1.PerformStep()
    End For
    ProgressBar1.Value = 0
