Infinite Progress Bar control
Overview of the infinite Progress Bar control Progress bars provide useful information to the end user. Sometimes, it is not possible to predict the duration of a process and therefore display a progress bar corresponding to the progress status. An infinite Progress Bar control can be used in this case. This type of progress bar displays an endless animation.
