The best method is to move your long running code to a seperate thread and have it report a value for progress. Check out the BackgroundWorker component for examples.

Now, in your existing code, after you Show the form, you have to call Application.DoEvents() so your UI thread has a chance to process the paint messages that will show the form. On top of that, you're also going to have to call DoEvents() after every time you update the progress bar so it can also repaint itself.
