I have given up trying to actually time my script with the progress bar, to many files and dozens of loops. Is there a simple way to code the progress bar to just loop from 0-100% continuously until the entire script is finished?

Thanks!

Were you trying to do something like this: loop-read timer, pls help?

Thanks for the reply. It appears that it is still trying to base the progress bar in accordance with progress of the script and or its "time." I want a completely unintelligent progress bar that does nothing more than "blink" so the user knows the process isn't dead. Something like:

Loop
{
Gui, Progess, 50
GUI, Progress, 100
Gui, Progress, 0
}

Of course the problem is that the rest of my script wouldn't run because it would be stuck on this loop.

try using a settimer instead of a loop?

Thanks for the help...concerning the timer, I have never played with this before, but it still seems to stick on the label like a loop would. In the code below how can I get beyond the label to my code and still have the label conintually executing?

EDIT: Nevermind, put the code BEFORE the time label, i got it...thanks for the help

EDIT 2: This is still no good though, makes the code run like a snail. Does it break between each line of code to run the label?

probably should get rid of the sleeps in there, and call the timer when you want to update...

something like:
