I meant a Progress bar that has a few blocks (default green) that move from the left to the right, on and on. (Compare it to the default bootscreen of windows) So the bar doesn't fill up. It's only a border in fact, that contains the moving blocks that indicate that actions are having place.
The label is something I'd do anyway, to inform the user about what's happening.
Thanks

Does anyone know a way to see the running (or loaded) DLL's on a windows xp/2003/2000 with .NET framework either 1.0/1.1 or 2.0 on it.
I figured there maybe a WMI interface for it but i can't find it?
Any assistance muchly appreciated.
Cheers
Justin

.NET has OLEDB and ODBC Data Adaptors. But the documentation does not give enough information regarding which one among these two is suited for which purpose. I need to keep my program transparent to whether the client uses Oracle or SQL Server at the backend.
Can some expert will throw light on this?

ODBC is an older connectivity model and only exists for backwards compatibility. If all the databases you are connecting to support OLEDB then you should use that one.

The SQL supported by SQL Server and Oracle have some differences also - if the user is writing SQL in your app I don't see how you can keep things completely transparent. So, one way or another you will be writing slightly different SQL.
IMHO, if the user is kept totally away from the database (no direct interaction) then my suggestion is to go for the specific SQL Server or Oracle data providers in the .NET Framework as you'll have to swap out the actual SQL commands anyway you might as well just optimise the whole by using the providers specific to the database.
Do you want to know more?

I had experiences in enterprise solution deployments, that many customers do not prefer to business logic sitting on the IIS machine. The .NET Web Services run on top of the IIS.
Now, while the recent IIS exploit memories are still fresh, does anybody have peculiar experience about the *trust* users are going to put over IIS/.NET based Web Service solutions?
I expect some interesting insights from the Microsoft guys and the pattern gurus.

No customer has ever asked me this, but I would answer:
1. What's the alternative? I mean, you have a business need to publish the functionality of some component over the Internet, right? So, if not a Web Service, what would you use? COM+? No, this needs a trusted domain. A custom-made socket? Come on, what makes you think you'll ever code something better than IIS?
2. Web Services (WS) can run on top of any Web Server. WS is just a protocol for receiving/delivering XML over HTTP. It's platform agnostic. If you want, deploy a WS running on Apache or your favorite web server. There's even a module for Apache that allows you to run ASP.NET on it.
3. Your fear is only valid if you don't have a corporate web site. If so, you're already at risk.
4. You're putting a business component on the Internet. You better not trust anyone. You'll be open to attacks. That's a fact. If you have a trusted party and do not want to have all the Internet hassle, choose, e.g., a VPN and use your web server only internally.

Thanks Daniel...
Well, contrary to your experience, all my customers have raised issues not having any business logic or data on the IIS machine. 
So my company had to settle with the following design for our Web based enterprise solution:
a. The ASP pages with only the display logic execute from the IIS.
b. They in turn call local COM components which act as clients to our Application Server sitting inside the firewall
c. The customers become happy because they think they have great control over the security of the system because they keep the IIS in DMZ and App server inside the firewall. They only allow a single particular port for communications between the IIS and the App Server.
d. This way if due to some IIS exploit a hacker gets control of the IIS machine he can only get to see the presentation logic sitting on the IIS. No business data.
I am aware about the WS theory and understand that they can run on top of any Web Server etc. I am however specifically asking the question in the Microsoft context.
Hope this elaborates my question.

So, what's the difference between your solution and creating a Web Service that does calls to your COM components?
No one said that you should put everything on the Web Server.
Again, Web Services are simply a standard protocol for receiving delivering XML messages. You can do Web Services in standard, old ASP, if you want to. You only won't have the automatic XML generated, but SOAP (the protocol used by web services) is very easy to generate by hand.

I have created a COM object by wrappiing a .NET assembly using tlbexp. This assembly is dependent on another assembly which, in turn, is dependent on two third party assemblies (I can't rebuild them and give them "strong names"). How can I deploy these dependent assemblies (DLLs)so that the COM object will work?

Actually, you can. Use ildasm.exe to disassemble, and then ilasm.exe to reassemble:
ildasm /out:test.il unsigned.exe<br />
ilasm /resource=test.res /output=signed.exe /key=test.snk test.il
In any case, as long as you deploy everything to the same directory, it should work fine, even without strong naming.

I would be happy to deploy everything in the same directory. The problem is that I don't know which directory use. The main DLL (DLL_1), and the only one whose classes I wish to expose, has been registered by REGASM and is accessible to unmanaged code. Not being a "second generation" MS programmer, I don't know much about the registry -- except that the methods exposed by DLL_1 are visible using regedit -- but not DLL_1's physical location. I have placed copies of the other DLLs in various places (e.g. a) the bin directory of DLL_1's project and b) the directory that contains the copy of DLL_1 that was "REGASMed") without success.
Any help making up for my generation2 deficiencies (Gen 2 > DOS and < .NET) would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, do you think it will take ten years for Generation 2 to die? (I wrote DOS code in early 2003 and Generation 2 started in 1993).

If you use the /codebase option of regasm.exe, then the registry will contain the path to that dll.
If the other DLLs are .NET dlls then they can be in the same directory as DLL_1, and DLL_1 should find them fine.
