Yes progress bars usually perform some action during task progress. Did you have some sort of a question or are you just making random statements?

i have updated the Question .Please check sir..

Sorry? I do not see anywhere where you have a progress bar at all or any code to update the progressbar or an actual question or a description of any kind of a problem.

kavitha3 5-Sep-14 10:06am

i want to add progressbar functionality to it .

please help sir

Okay so go ahead and do that then. We are not here to write your code for you. That is YOUR job. Do some research, look at the example code and make some sort of attempt.

it seems more like an answer than a question. Please tell us where you are stuck.
